Does this have to be an extra function? Can we not reuse
uclamp_tg_restrict() by slightly rename it to uclamp_restrict()?

This function will then deal with enforcing restrictions, whether system
and taskgroup hierarchy related or default value (latter only for rt-min
right now since the others are fixed) related.

uclamp_eff_get() -> uclamp_restrict() is called from:

  'enqueue_task(), uclamp_update_active() -> uclamp_rq_inc() -> uclamp_rq_inc_id()' and

  'task_fits_capacity() -> clamp_task_util(), rt_task_fits_capacity() -> uclamp_eff_value()' and

  'schedutil_cpu_util(), find_energy_efficient_cpu() -> uclamp_rq_util_with() -> uclamp_eff_value()'

so there would be more check-points than the one in 'enqueue_task() -> uclamp_rq_inc()' now.

Only lightly tested:
