Subject: [PATCH RESEND v10] sched/deadline: support dl task migration during cpu hotplug

I observe that dl task can't be migrated to other cpus during cpu hotplug,
in addition, task may/may not be running again if cpu is added back. The
root cause which I found is that dl task will be throtted and removed from
dl rq after comsuming all budget, which leads to stop task can't pick it up
from dl rq and migrate to other cpus during hotplug.

The method to reproduce:
schedtool -E -t 50000:100000 -e ./test
Actually test is just a simple for loop. Then observe which cpu the test
task is on.
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuN/online

This patch adds the dl task migration during cpu hotplug by finding a most
suitable later deadline rq after dl timer fire if current rq is offline,
if fail to find a suitable later deadline rq then fallback to any eligible
online cpu in order that the deadline task will come back to us, and the
push/pull mechanism should then move it around properly.
