Subject: [PATCH v2] sched/cpufreq: fix trigger cpufreq update w/o real rt/deadline tasks running

From: Wanpeng Li <wanpeng.li@...mail.com>

Sometimes update_curr() is called w/o tasks actually running, it is
captured by: 

	u64 delta_exec = rq_clock_task(rq) - curr->se.exec_start;

We should not trigger cpufreq update in this case for rt/deadline
classes, and this patch fix it.
