sched/deadline: Fix the intention to re-evalute tick dependency for offline CPU



The dl task will be replenished after dl task timer fire and start a
new period. It will be enqueued and to re-evaluate its dependency on
the tick in order to restart it. However, if the CPU is hot-unplugged,
irq_work_queue will splash since the target CPU is offline.

As a result we get:

    WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 0 at kernel/irq_work.c:69 irq_work_queue_on+0xad/0xe0
    Call Trace:
     dump_stack+0x99/0xd0
     __warn+0xd1/0xf0
     warn_slowpath_null+0x1d/0x20
     irq_work_queue_on+0xad/0xe0
     tick_nohz_full_kick_cpu+0x44/0x50
     tick_nohz_dep_set_cpu+0x74/0xb0
     enqueue_task_dl+0x226/0x480
     activate_task+0x5c/0xa0
     dl_task_timer+0x19b/0x2c0
     ? push_dl_task.part.31+0x190/0x190

This can be triggered by hot-unplugging the full dynticks CPU which dl
task is running on.

We enqueue the dl task on the offline CPU, because we need to do
replenish for start_dl_timer(). So, as Juri pointed out, we would
need to do is calling replenish_dl_entity() directly, instead of
enqueue_task_dl(). pi_se shouldn't be a problem as the task shouldn't
be boosted if it was throttled.

This patch fixes it by avoiding the whole enqueue+dequeue+enqueue story, by
first migrating (set_task_cpu()) and then doing 1 enqueue.
