try_steal_cookie() is in the loop of for_each_cpu_wrap().
The root domain could be large and we should avoid
stealing cookie if source rq has only one task or dst is really busy.

The following patch eliminated a deadlock issue on my side if I didn't
miss anything in v1. I'll double check with v2, but it at least avoids
unnecessary irq off/on and double rq lock. Especially, it avoids lock
contention that the idle cpu which is holding rq lock in the progress
of load_balance() and tries to lock rq here. I think it might be worth to
be picked up.

Thanks,
