[PATCH] erofs: use HIPRI by default if per-cpu kthreads are enabled

As Sandeep shown [1], high priority RT per-cpu kthreads are
typically helpful for Android scenarios to minimize the scheduling
latencies.

Switch EROFS_FS_PCPU_KTHREAD_HIPRI on by default if
EROFS_FS_PCPU_KTHREAD is on since it's the typical use cases for
EROFS_FS_PCPU_KTHREAD.

Also clean up unneeded sched_set_normal().
