[PATCH] sched/core: Always do the balancing pass from dl_sched_class

[Chengming Zhou]

The commit 67692435c411 ("sched: Rework pick_next_task() slow-path") and
commit 6e2df0581f56 ("sched: Fix pick_next_task() vs 'change' pattern race")
changed the original pick_next_task() loop logic a little.

Previously we always do class->pick_next_task(rq, prev, rf) from highest
to lowest, and balance happened in that class->pick_next_task(), so we
don't need to pull RT task if we can pick a DL task.

The current code do the balancing pass from prev->class, say prev task
is a RT task to sleep, we will try balance for rt sched_class even though
we have a DL task on rq.

This patch changes to always do the balancing pass from dl_sched_class,
since we will check if balance is really needed in each class->balance(),
we can terminate the balance pass as soon as we know there is a runnable
task of @class priority or higher.
