update_cfs_rq_load_avg() calls cfs_rq_util_change() every time PELT decays,
which might be inefficient when the cpufreq driver has rate limitation.
When a task is attached on a CPU, we have this call path:
update_load_avg()
update_cfs_rq_load_avg()
cfs_rq_util_change -- > trig frequency update
attach_entity_load_avg()
cfs_rq_util_change -- > trig frequency update
The 1st frequency update will not take into account the utilization of the
newly attached task and the 2nd one might be discarded because of rate
limitation of the cpufreq driver.
update_cfs_rq_load_avg() is only called by update_blocked_averages()
and update_load_avg() so we can move the call to
cfs_rq_util_change/cpufreq_update_util() into these two functions.
It's also interesting to note that update_load_avg() already calls
cfs_rq_util_change() directly for the !SMP case.
This change will also ensure that cpufreq_update_util() is called even
when there is no more CFS rq in the leaf_cfs_rq_list to update, but only
IRQ, RT or DL PELT signals.
