Subject: [PATCH 2/3] sched/fair: Fixes for capacity inversion detection

Traversing the Perf Domains requires rcu_read_lock() to be held and is
conditional on sched_energy_enabled(). rcu_read_lock() is held while in
load_balance(), add an assert to ensure this is always the case.

Also skip capacity inversion detection for our own pd; which was an
error.
