sched/fair: remove util_est boosting

Browse source 
[ Upstream commit c2e164ac33 ]

There is no need to use runnable_avg when estimating util_est and that
even generates wrong behavior because one includes blocked tasks whereas
the other one doesn't. This can lead to accounting twice the waking task p,
once with the blocked runnable_avg and another one when adding its
util_est.

cpu's runnable_avg is already used when computing util_avg which is then
compared with util_est.

In some situation, feec will not select prev_cpu but another one on the
same performance domain because of higher max_util
