[PATCH 01/15] sched: Make NOHZ CFS bandwidth checks follow proxy donor

Proxy execution separates the scheduling context in rq->donor from the
physical execution context in rq->curr. sched_can_stop_tick() checks the
latter for CFS bandwidth constraints and only does so when nr_running is
one.

A retained proxy donor keeps both the donor and mutex owner queued. The
check therefore misses a constrained FAIR donor and may stop the tick
while its runtime still needs to be enforced.

Check the selected donor instead and remove the nr_running restriction.
The donor being a queued FAIR task is sufficient to require bandwidth
accounting regardless of other runnable tasks.
