sched/eevdf: Clear buddies for preempt_short

Browse source

next buddy should not prevent shorter slice preemption. Don't take buddy
into account when checking if shorter slice entity can preempt and clear it
if the entity with a shorter slice can preempt current.

Test on snapdragon rb5:
hackbench -T -p -l 16000000 -g 2 1> /dev/null &
hackbench runs in cgroup /test-A
cyclictest -t 1 -i 2777 -D 63 --policy=fair --mlock  -h 20000 -q
cyclictest runs in cgroup /test-B
