While adding the sched_energy_enabled() condition looks OK, the _not prefix 
This is silly: putting logical operators into functions names is far less 
readable than a !fn()...

Especially since we already have cpu_overutilized(). It's far more coherent 
to have the same basic attribute functions and put any negation into 
*actual* logical operators.
