sched/fair: Fold the sched_avg update
Nine (and a half) instances of the same pattern is just silly, fold the lot.
Notably, the half instance in enqueue_load_avg() is right after setting
cfs_rq->avg.load_sum to cfs_rq->avg.load_avg * get_pelt_divider(&cfs_rq->avg).
Since get_pelt_divisor() >= PELT_MIN_DIVIDER, this ends up being a no-op
change.
