sched/fair: Fall back to sched-idle CPU if idle CPU isn't found
We try to find an idle CPU to run the next task, but in case we don't
find an idle CPU it is better to pick a CPU which will run the task the
soonest, for performance reason.
A CPU which isn't idle but has only SCHED_IDLE activity queued on it
should be a good target based on this criteria as any normal fair task
will most likely preempt the currently running SCHED_IDLE task
immediately. In fact, choosing a SCHED_IDLE CPU over a fully idle one
shall give better results as it should be able to run the task sooner
than an idle CPU (which requires to be woken up from an idle state).
This patch updates both fast and slow paths with this optimization.
