sched: Fix nr_uninterruptible count

The cpuload calculation in calc_load_account_active() assumes
rq->nr_uninterruptible will not change on an offline cpu after
migrate_nr_uninterruptible(). However the recent migrate on wakeup
changes broke that and would result in decrementing the offline cpu's
rq->nr_uninterruptible.

Fix this by accounting the nr_uninterruptible on the waking cpu.
