sched: Fix load corruption from update_cfs_shares()



As part of enqueue_entity both a new entity weight and its contribution to the
queuing cfs_rq / rq are updated.  Since update_cfs_shares will only update the
queueing weights when the entity is on_rq (which in this case it is not yet),
there's a dependency loop here:

update_cfs_shares needs account_entity_enqueue to update cfs_rq->load.weight
account_entity_enqueue needs the updated weight for the queuing cfs_rq load[*]

Fix this and avoid spurious dequeue/enqueues by issuing update_cfs_shares as
if we had accounted the enqueue already.

This was also resulting in rq->load corruption previously.

[*]: this dependency also exists when using the group cfs_rq w/
     update_cfs_shares as the weight of the enqueued entity changes
     without the load being updated.
