[RFC PATCH v2 1/8] sched/cpufreq_schedutil: make use of DEADLINE utilization signal

[Juri Lelli]

From: Juri Lelli <juri.lelli@xxxxxxx>

SCHED_DEADLINE tracks active utilization signal with a per dl_rq
variable named running_bw.

Make use of that to drive cpu frequency selection: add up FAIR and
DEADLINE contribution to get the required CPU capacity to handle both
requirements (while RT still selects max frequency).
