An entity is supposed to get an earlier deadline with
PLACE_DEADLINE_INITIAL when it's forked, but the deadline gets
overwritten soon after in enqueue_entity() the first time a forked
entity is woken so that PLACE_DEADLINE_INITIAL is effectively a no-op.

Placing in task_fork_fair() seems unnecessary since none of the values
that get set (slice, vruntime, deadline) are used before they're set
again at enqueue time, so get rid of that (and with it all of
task_fork_fair()) and just pass ENQUEUE_INITIAL to enqueue_entity() via
wake_up_new_task().

Fixes: e8f331bcc270 ("sched/smp: Use lag to simplify cross-runqueue placement")

v3
 - Rebased on tip/sched/core and retested.  The "none of the values that
   get set (slice, vruntime, deadline) are used" part was checked
   without this patch by poisoning slice, vruntime, and deadline when
   placing from task_fork_fair() and checking for the poisoned values
   everywhere they're read until the entity is placed again in enqueue_entity().
 - Added Chen Yu's R-b and Prateek's T-b
