Currently dl tasks will actually return at the very beginning
of rt_mutex_adjust_prio_chain() in !detect_deadlock cases:

    if (waiter->prio == task->prio) {
        if (!detect_deadlock)
            goto out_unlock_pi; // out here
        else
            requeue = false;
    }

As the deadline value of blocked deadline tasks(waiters) without
changing their sched_class(thus prio doesn't change) never changes,
this seems reasonable, but it actually misses the chance of updating
rt_mutex_waiter's "dl_runtime(period)_copy" if a waiter updates its
deadline parameters(dl_runtime, dl_period) or boosted waiter changes
to !deadline class.

Thus, force deadline task not out by adding the !dl_prio() condition.

[peterz: I should introduce more task state comparators like
rt_mutex_waiter_less, all PI prio comparisons already have this DL
exception, except this one]
