[PATCH 2/2] sched/fair: avoid recalculating curr status in place_entity() and requeue_delayed_entity()

[Kayra Cizmeci <kayracizmeci@gmail.com>]

In enqueue_task_fair() a bool is calculated by cfs_rq->curr == se.
But this information gets recalculated on requeue_delayed_entity() and
requeue_delayed_entity() only gets called in enqueue_task_fair().
And on place_entity() if se == curr we call the avg_vruntime_weight()
twice with the same input. place_entity() only gets called in
enqueue_task_fair() and requeue_delayed_entity().

Use the information on enqueue_task_fair() in requeue_delayed_entity().
And place_entity() to avoid calling avg_vruntime_weight() twice.

The patch needs curr to be invariant so I added the same 
(cfs_rq->curr == se) to places in requeue_delayed_entity() and
and enqueue_task_fair(). Like after the place_entity() call in
requeue_delayed_entity(), or like before if (curr) the old place
of the calculation. And added WARN_ON_ONCE(curr != new_calc_curr)
or something like that I don't know how to say it normally.

Then I booted these changes on x86 (Zen 3)
called perf bench sched messaging with 200 groups and 5000 loops.
And then I make sure if the requeue_delayed_entity() was really working
with ftrace. The results were good but I left the computer on 2 more
hours and then checked the results again. It was still good, but
considering that I booted the kernel with busybox I don't think
much happened on that 2 hour window.
