[RFC PATCH v2 1/7] Revert "sched/uclamp: Set max_spare_cap_cpu even if max_spare_cap is 0"
From: Hongyan Xia

That commit creates further problems because 0 spare capacity can be
either a real indication that the CPU is maxed out, or the CPU is
UCLAMP_MAX throttled, but we end up giving all of them a chance which
can results in bogus energy calculations. It also tends to schedule
tasks on the same CPU and requires load balancing patches. Sum
aggregation solves these problems and this patch is not needed.
This reverts commit 6b00a40147653c8ea748e8f4396510f252763364.
