kthread_is_per_cpu() can be called directly without checking whether
PF_KTHREAD is set in task->flags. So remove PF_KTHREAD check to make

The initial intention was to ignore only percpu kthreads. The current code likely ignore all the kthreads. Removing the PF_KTHREAD flag, however, may introduce unexpected regression at this point. I would like to hold off for now until more investigation are done.
