Subject: [PATCH 9/9] sched/core: Delete SIS_PROP and rely on the idle cpu mask

Now that there is an idle CPU mask that is approximately up to date, the
proportional scan depth can be removed and the scan depth is limited by
the estimated number of idle CPUs instead.

The plus side of this patch is that the time accounting overhead is gone.
The downside is that in some circumstances, this will scan more than
proportional scanning depending on whether an idle core is being scanned
or the accuracy of the idle CPU mask.
