Subject: [PATCH RESEND v2] sched/deadline: do not try to push tasks if pinned task switches to dl

As Kirill mentioned(https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/1/29/118):
| If rq has already had 2 or more pushable tasks and we try to add a
| pinned task then call of push_rt_task will just waste a time.

Just switched pinned task is not able to be pushed. If the rq had had
several dl tasks before they have already been considered as candidates
to be pushed (or pulled). This patch done the same behavior as rt class
which introduced by commit 10447917551e ("sched/rt: Do not try to push
tasks if pinned task switches to RT").

I'd personally align this && to p->nr_cpus_allowed, but that's just my
personal taste, though. :)

Anyway, the change looks good, thanks!
