I'm trying to find an easy way to repro the issue, so far, unsuccessful.

I don't think task's affinity change races with preemption disabled/enabled.

Switching to preemption disable/enable calls helps as it's just simple
counter increment and decrement with a barrier, but with migrate 
disable/enable when task's affinity changes, we run into recursive bug
due to rq lock.

By the way, migrate disable/enable does end up calling preemt disable/enable
as well, pls see [1].
