Queued ticks are scheduled to match the budget, which means the budget
is overall consumed and the dl task should be throttled.
Dl task will be replenished immediately if fail to start a dl timer.
So the curr maybe not the left most dl task in the rb tree any more
after this immediately replenished since reschedule is needed.
The parameter of task_tick_dl() queued == 1 means that hrtick is fired.
hrtick() => task_tick_dl( , ,1), so p->dl.runtime should be <= 0 if
queued == 1. If replenished immediately(fail to start dl timer),
hrtick is start for task w/ queued == 1 && p->dl.runtime > 0 && p is
not the left most task.
Start high-res preemption tick for this upcoming rescheduled dl task
is not correct. This patch fix it by not starting high-res preemption
tick for a non-leftmost dl task.
