Subject: [PATCH 9/9] sched/balancing: Rename run_rebalance_domains() => sched_balance_softirq()

run_rebalance_domains() is a misnomer, as it doesn't only
run rebalance_domains(), but since the introduction of the
NOHZ code it also runs nohz_idle_balance().

Rename it to sched_balance_softirq(), reflecting its more
generic purpose and that it's a softirq handler.
