sched: Fix/remove redundant cfs_rq checks



Since updates are against an entity's queuing cfs_rq it's not possible to
enter update_cfs_{shares,load} with a NULL cfs_rq.  (Indeed, update_cfs_load
would crash prior to the check if we did anyway since we load is examined
during the initializers).

Also, in the update_cfs_load case there's no point
in maintaining averages for rq->cfs_rq since we don't perform shares
distribution at that level -- NULL check is replaced accordingly.

Thanks to Dan Carpenter for pointing out the deference before NULL check.
