Xunlei Pang fec148c000 sched/deadline: Fix a bug in dl_overflow()
I got a minus(very big) dl_b->total_bw during my deadline tests.

    # grep dl /proc/sched_debug
    dl_rq[0]:
    .dl_nr_running                 : 0
    .dl_bw->bw                     : 996147
    .dl_bw->total_bw               : -222297900

Something unusual must have happened.

After some digging, I finally noticed that when changing a deadline
task to normal(cfs), and changing it back to deadline immediately,
after it died, we will got the wrong dl_bw->total_bw.

The root cause is in dl_overflow(), it has:
    if (new_bw == p->dl.dl_bw)
	return 0;

1) When a deadline task is changed to !deadline task, it will start
   dl timer in switched_from_dl(), and retain previous deadline parameter
   till the timer expires.

2) If we change it back to deadline with the same bandwidth parameter
   before the timer expires, as it keeps the old bandwidth although it
   is not a deadline task. dl_overflow() simply returns success without
   updating the right data, and got the wrong dl_bw->total_bw.

The solution is simple, if @p is not deadline, don't return.
