Subject: [PATCH v2 1/5] sched/fair: Move select_task_rq_fair slow-path into its own function

In preparation for changes that would otherwise require adding a new
level of indentation to the while(sd) loop, create a new function
find_idlest_cpu which contains this loop, and rename the existing
find_idlest_cpu to find_idlest_group_cpu.

Code inside the while(sd) loop is unchanged. @new_cpu is added as a
variable in the new function, with the same initial value as the
@new_cpu in select_task_rq_fair.
