Tianchen Ding 5a4f8de92d sched/fair: Make SCHED_IDLE entity be preempted in strict hierarchy
[ Upstream commit faa42d29419def58d3c3e5b14ad4037f0af3b496 ]

Consider the following cgroup:

                       root
                        |
             ------------------------
             |                      |
       normal_cgroup            idle_cgroup
             |                      |
   SCHED_IDLE task_A           SCHED_NORMAL task_B

According to the cgroup hierarchy, A should preempt B. But current
check_preempt_wakeup_fair() treats cgroup se and task separately, so B
will preempt A unexpectedly.
Unify the wakeup logic by {c,p}se_is_idle only. This makes SCHED_IDLE of
a task a relative policy that is effective only within its own cgroup,
similar to the behavior of NICE.

Also fix se_is_idle() definition when !CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED.

Fixes: 304000390f ("sched: Cgroup SCHED_IDLE support")
