Traversing the Perf Domains requires rcu_read_lock() to be held and is
conditional on sched_energy_enabled(). rcu_read_lock() is held while in
load_balance(), add an assert to ensure this is always the case.

Also skip capacity inversion detection for our own pd; which was an
error.

Changes in v2:

	* Make sure to hold rcu_read_lock() as we need it's not held in all
	  paths (thanks Dietmar!)

Err that should say instead

	Traversing the Perf Domains requires rcu_read_lock() to be held and is
	conditional on sched_energy_enabled(). Ensure right protections applied.

Peter, let me know if you want me to resend with that fixed or happy to apply
yourself.


Thanks!
