sched/deadline: Don't count nr_running for dl_server proxy tasks
On CPU offline the kernel stalled with below call trace:
INFO: task kworker/0:1:11 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
cpuhp hold the cpu hotplug lock endless and stalled vmstat_shepherd.
This is because we count nr_running twice on cpuhp enqueuing and failed
the wait condition of cpuhp:
enqueue_task_fair() // pick cpuhp from idle, rq->nr_running = 0
dl_server_start()
[...]
add_nr_running() // rq->nr_running = 1
add_nr_running() // rq->nr_running = 2
[switch to cpuhp, waiting on balance_hotplug_wait()]
rcuwait_wait_event(rq->nr_running == 1 && ...) // failed, rq->nr_running=2
schedule() // wait again
It doesn't make sense to count the dl_server towards runnable tasks,
since it runs other tasks.
