Subjectsched/rt: Pick up the throttled rt tasks in case no other non-rt tasks
From
Date

Meet the case that on CPU2, there are just two tasks to be run,
one is one rt task A, another is idle task, but at this time,
and the rt_rq is throttled.

CPU1 CPU2
staying in idle task;
waking up rt task A on
target CPU 2;

exiting from idle task;
DO schedule()
pick up RT next task
pick_next_task_rt()
_pick_next_task_rt()
rt_rq is throttled
return NULL rt task to be picked

CPU2 then went into idle task AGAIN;
after 2s, CPU2 is waken up again;
rt task A is get running;

Here rt task A is delayed for some time, even when CPU2 is in idle state.

so in case there are just rt tasks running, we can pick up one of them
even rt_rq is throttled.
