sched/fair: Avoid redundant EAS calculation
The EAS wake-up path computes the system energy for several CPU candidates: the CPU with maximum spare capacity in each performance domain, and the prev_cpu. However, if prev_cpu also happens to be the CPU with maximum spare capacity in its performance domain, the energy calculation is still done twice, unnecessarily. Add a condition to filter out this corner case before doing the energy calculation.
