Subject: [PATCH 00/10] Various load-balance cleanups/optimizations -v2

After poking at them a little more I feel somewhat more confident.

I found one more bug, but this one was my own fault, we should also clear
sds->busiest_stat.avg_load because update_sd_pick_busiest() reads that before
we set it.

Moved the memset optimization and the fix for that into a separate patch.

Other than that, there's a sched_domain degenerate fix; and a new way to detect
group_imb (which relies on the sched_domain fix).
