sched/deadline: Reduce rq lock contention in dl_add_task_root_domain()

dl_add_task_root_domain() is called during sched domain rebuild:

  rebuild_sched_domains_locked()
    partition_and_rebuild_sched_domains()
      rebuild_root_domains()
         for all top_cpuset descendants:
           update_tasks_root_domain()
             for all tasks of cpuset:
               dl_add_task_root_domain()

Change it so that only the task pi lock is taken to check if the task
has a SCHED_DEADLINE (DL) policy. In case that p is a DL task take the
rq lock as well to be able to safely de-reference root domain's DL
bandwidth structure.

Most of the tasks will have another policy (namely SCHED_NORMAL) and
can now bail without taking the rq lock.

One thing to note here: Even in case that there aren't any DL user
tasks, a slow frequency switching system with cpufreq gov schedutil has
a DL task (sugov) per frequency domain running which participates in DL
bandwidth management.
