Does not this means the problem is more likely with uclamp_rq_util_with(),
which should be guarded?

Otherwise, we will also keep doing useless min/max aggregations each
time schedutil calls that function, thus not completely removing
uclamp overheads while user-space has not opted in.

What about dropping this and add the guard in the following patch, along
with the others?
