Subject: [RFC PATCH 13/16 v3] Intercept wakeup/fork/exec load balancing

We intercept load balancing to contain the load and load balancing in
the consolidated CPUs according to our consolidating mechanism.

In wakeup/fork/exec load balaning, when to find the idlest sched_group,
we first try to find the consolidated group
