Is this really getting tested well? Because at least for SCHED_OTHER
tasks, the newidle balancer is still supposed to be relatively
conservative and not over balance too much. By the time you have
done all this calculation and reached here, it will be a loss to only
move one task if you could have moved two and halved your newidle
balance rate...
