When psimon wakes up and there are no state changes for rtpoll_states,
it's unnecessary to update triggers and rtpoll_total because the pressures
being monitored by user have not changed. This will help to slightly reduce
unnecessary computations of psi.

There are also some minor related optimizations, please see below.

Update_triggers() always return now + group->rtpoll_min_period, and the
return value is only used by psi_rtpoll_work(), so change update_triggers()
to a void function, let group->rtpoll_next_update = now +
group->rtpoll_min_period directly.

Update group->rtpoll_next_update after called update_triggers() and
update rtpoll_total. This will prevent bugs if update_triggers() uses
group->rtpoll_next_update in the future, and it makes more sense
to set the next update time after we finished the current update.

The parameter update_total in update_triggers() is useless now. Since if
changed_states & group->rtpoll_states is true, new_stall in update_triggers()
will be true, then update_total should also be true. We have no need for
update_total to help judgment whether to update rtpoll_total, so delete
update_total.

Change log
----------
v2->v3:
----------

  e03dc9fa0663 ("sched/psi: Change update_triggers() to a 'void' function")
(2) remake the remaining patches on top of that #1 patch
----------
(1) the line number of group->rtpoll_next_update in patch 1 remain unchanged
(2) split patch 3 from patch 2
