sched_ext: Fix NULL dereference in scx_bpf_cpu_rq() warning

When printing the deprecation warning for scx_bpf_cpu_rq(), we may hit a
NULL pointer dereference if the kfunc is called before a BPF scheduler
is fully attached, for example, when invoked from a BPF timer or during
ops.init():

Fix this by only printing the warning once the scheduler is fully
registered.
