sched: fix goto retry in pick_next_task_rt()

looking at it one more time:

(1) it looks to me that there is no need to call
sched_rt_ratio_exceeded() from pick_next_rt_entity()

- [ for CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED ] queues with rt_rq->rt_throttled are
not within this 'tree-like hierarchy' (or whatever we should call it
:-)

- there is also no need to re-check 'rt_rq->rt_time > ratio' at this
point as 'rt_rq->rt_time' couldn't have been increased since the last
call to update_curr_rt() (which obviously calls
sched_rt_ratio_esceeded())
well, it might be that 'ratio' for this rt_rq has been re-configured
(and the period over which this rt_rq was active has not yet been
finished)... but I don't think we should really take this into
account.

(2) now pick_next_rt_entity() must never return NULL, so let's change
pick_next_task_rt() accordingly.
