Non clamped tasks is kind-of ambiguous, since you can have:
a) tasks with util_max = UCLAMP_NOT_VALID (the default for all tasks)
b) tasks with util_max = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE as a task specific
clamp value
They are both technically not clamped but, for case b there should not
be issue, since we will track SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE as idle hold value.
For case a instead is a bit different, especially when they mix with
tasks with a valid task specific clamp value, as I've just commented
in this posting:

Right, I'm going to add a bit of text on that.
