IIRC, we discussed this before, if a SCHED_IDLE task is placed on the
CPU's runqueue, this CPU should be still taken as a wakeup target.

Also, for those frequent context-switching tasks with very short idle,
it's expensive for scheduler to mark idle/busy every time, that's why
my patch only marks idle every time and marks busy ratelimited in
scheduler tick.

Thanks,
