sched/topology: Add a cpus_read_lock to rebuild_sched_domains()

A read from /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_runtime_us leads to backtrace due
to missing cpu_hotplug_lock with CONFIG_CPUSETS=n. The callchain is
sched_rt_handler() -> partition_sched_domains() -> sched_cache_set() ->
static_key_enable_cpuslocked(&sched_cache_present).

sched_cache_set() itself is also invoked from sched_init_domains() which
is early during the boot, holding just the sched_domains_mutex_lock().
Here is no warning because it happens before user space is running (and
hotplug operations are not possible).

There is also sched_cache_active_set() which acquires the hotplug lock
before invoking any of the _cpuslocked() functions.

This is only a problem with CONFIG_CPUSETS=n because in the =y case the
other implementation of rebuild_sched_domains acquires the CPU-hotplug
lock.

Acquire CPU hotplug lock before in rebuild_sched_domains(), before
partition_sched_domains() is invoked for the CONFIG_CPUSETS=n case.
