sched: Introduce hierarchal order on shares update list
Avoid duplicate shares update calls by ensuring children always appear before
parents in rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list.
This allows us to do a single in-order traversal for update_shares().
Since we always enqueue in bottom-up order this reduces to 2 cases:
1) Our parent is already in the list, e.g.
root
\
b
/\
c d* (root->b->c already enqueued)
Since d's parent is enqueued we push it to the head of the list, implicitly ahead of b.
2) Our parent does not appear in the list (or we have no parent)
In this case we enqueue to the tail of the list, if our parent is subsequently enqueued
(bottom-up) it will appear to our right by the same rule.
