sched: Fix sched rt group scheduling when hierachy is enabled

The current sched rt code is broken when it comes to hierarchical
scheduling, this patch fixes two problems

1. It adds redundant enqueuing (harmless) when it finds a queue
   has tasks enqueued, but it has no run time and it is not
   throttled.

2. The most important change is in sched_rt_rq_enqueue/dequeue.
   The code just picks the rt_rq belonging to the current cpu
   on which the period timer runs, the patch fixes it, so that
   the correct rt_se is enqueued/dequeued.

Tested with a simple hierarchy

/c/d, c and d assigned similar runtimes of 50,000 and a while
1 loop runs within "d". Both c and d get throttled, without
the patch, the task just stops running and never runs (depends
on where the sched_rt b/w timer runs). With the patch, the
task is throttled and runs as expected.

[ bharata, suggestions on how to pick the rt_se belong to the
  rt_rq and correct cpu ]
