This is v2 of my previous patch removing dl_new; repect to
the previos version, I (hopeflly) fixed all the coding style
issues (now scripts/checkpatch.pl reports 0 warinngs and 0 errors).
The patch has been tested with Juri's deadline tests and
some other tests based on periodic real-time threads, and the
tests did not show any regressions respect to git master.

sched/deadline: remove dl_new from sched_dl_entity

The dl_new field of the sched_dl_entity is currently used to
identify new deadline tasks, so that their deadline and runtime
can be properly initialised.
However, these tasks can be easily identified by checking if
their deadline is smaller than the current time when they switch
to SCHED_DEADLINE. So, dl_new can be removed by introducing this
check in switched_to_dl(); this allows to simplify the
SCHED_DEADLINE code.
