sched/fair: Fix the decision for load balance
should_we_balance is called for the decision to do load-balancing.
When sched ticks invoke this function, only one CPU should return
true. However, in the current code, two CPUs can return true. The
following situation, where b means busy and i means idle, is an
example, because CPU 0 and CPU 2 return true.
[0, 1] [2, 3]
b b i b
This fix checks if there exists an idle CPU with busy sibling(s)
after looking for a CPU on an idle core. If some idle CPUs with busy
siblings are found, just the first one should do load-balancing.
Fixes: b1bfeab9b002 ("sched/fair: Consider the idle state of the whole core for load balance")
