Mike Galbraith fd8ef11730 Revert "sched, autogroup: Stop going ahead if autogroup is disabled" 
This reverts commit 800d4d30c8.

Between commits 8323f26ce3 ("sched: Fix race in task_group()") and
800d4d30c8 ("sched, autogroup: Stop going ahead if autogroup is
disabled"), autogroup is a wreck.

With both applied, all you have to do to crash a box is disable
autogroup during boot up, then reboot..  boom, NULL pointer dereference
due to commit 800d4d30c8 not allowing autogroup to move things, and
commit 8323f26ce3 making that the only way to switch runqueues:

  BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at           (null)
