sched/uclamp: Ignore (util == 0) optimization in feec() when p_util_max = 0

find_energy_efficient_cpu() bails out early if effective util of the
task is 0 as the delta at this point will be zero and there's nothing
for EAS to do. When uclamp is being used, this could lead to wrong
decisions when uclamp_max is set to 0. In this case the task is capped
to performance point 0, but it is actually running and consuming energy
and we can benefit from EAS energy calculations.

Rework the condition so that it bails out when both util and uclamp_min
are 0.

We can do that without needing to use uclamp_task_util(); remove it.

Fixes: d81304bc6193 ("sched/uclamp: Cater for uclamp in find_energy_efficient_cpu()'s early exit condition")
