Would something like this make sense instead?

It also retains the ->runtime while yielded, and would actually 'fix' a
case where, when we call yield, we would have had a negative runtime
after update_curr_dl().

The current code will 'gift' us extra runtime in that case.

I'll test it and see if it works.

sched/deadline: Always calculate end of period on sched_yield()

Steven noticed that occasionally a sched_yield() call would not result
in a wait for the next period edge as expected.

It turns out that when we call update_curr_dl() and end up with
delta_exec <= 0, we will bail early and fail to throttle.

Further inspection of the yield code revealed that yield_task_dl()
clearing dl.runtime is wrong too, it will not account the last bit of
runtime which could result in dl.runtime < 0, which in turn means that
replenish would gift us with too much runtime.

Fix both issues by not relying on the dl.runtime value for yield.
