sched: Fix update_cfs_load() synchronization

Using cfs_rq->nr_running is not sufficient to synchronize update_cfs_load with
the put path since nr_running accounting occurs at deactivation.

It's also not safe to make the removal decision based on load_avg as this fails
with both high periods and low shares.  Resolve this by clipping history after
4 periods without activity.

Note: the above will always occur from update_shares() since in the
last-task-sleep-case that task will still be cfs_rq->curr when update_cfs_load
is called.
