Subject: [PATCH v4 3/4] sched/core: Avoid multiple calling update_rq_clock() in __cfsb_csd_unthrottle()

After commit 8ad075c2eb1f ("sched: Async unthrottling for cfs
bandwidth"), we may update the rq clock multiple times in the loop of
__cfsb_csd_unthrottle(). At that time the following warning will be
triggered.
------------[ cut here ]------------
rq->clock_update_flags & RQCF_UPDATED
WARNING: CPU: 54 PID: 0 at kernel/sched/core.c:741
update_rq_clock+0xaf/0x180
Call Trace:
 <TASK>
 unthrottle_cfs_rq+0x4b/0x300
 __cfsb_csd_unthrottle+0xe0/0x100
 __flush_smp_call_function_queue+0xaf/0x1d0

 cpu_startup_entry+0x19/0x20
 start_secondary+0xfa/0x120
 secondary_startup_64_no_verify+0xce/0xdb

Before the loop starts, we update the rq clock once and call
rq_clock_start_loop_update() to prevent updating the rq clock
multiple times. And call rq_clock_stop_loop_update() After
the loop to clear rq->clock_update_flags.

Fixes: 8ad075c2eb1f ("sched: Async unthrottling for cfs bandwidth")
