sched: Ensure update_cfs_shares() is called for parents of continuously-running tasks
commit bf0bd948d1682e3996adc093b43021ed391983e6 upstream. We typically update a task_group's shares within the dequeue/enqueue path. However, continuously running tasks sharing a CPU are not subject to these updates as they are only put/picked. Unfortunately, when we reverted f269ae046 (in 17bc14b7), we lost the augmenting periodic update that was supposed to account for this; resulting in a potential loss of fairness. To fix this, re-introduce the explicit update in update_cfs_rq_blocked_load() [called via entity_tick()].
