MINOR: task: remove __tasklet_remove_from_tasklet_list()
This function is only used at a single place directly within the
scheduler in run_tasks_from_lists() and it really ought not be called
by anything else, regardless of what its comment says. Let's delete
it, move the two lines directly into the call place, and take this
opportunity to factor the atomic decrement on tasks_run_queue. A comment
was added on the remaining one tasklet_remove_from_tasklet_list() to
mention the risks in using it.
