[PATCH 2/2] sched: remove distribute_running from CFS bandwidth

[Josh Don <joshdon@google.com>]

This is mostly a revert of baa9be4ff.

The primary use of distribute_running was to determine whether to add
throttled entities to the head or the tail of the throttled list. Now
that we always add to the tail, we can remove this field.

The other use of distribute_running is in the slack_timer, so that we
don't start a distribution while one is already running. However, even
in the event that this race occurs, it is fine to have two distributions
running (especially now that distribute grabs the cfs_b->lock to
determine remaining quota before assigning).
