Peter Zijlstra 9fe89f022c sched/fair: More complex proportional newidle balance
It turns out that a few workloads (easyWave, fio) have a fairly low
success rate on newidle balance, but still benefit greatly from having
it anyway.

Luckliky these workloads have a faily low newidle rate, so the cost if
doing the newidle is relatively low, even if unsuccessfull.

Add a simple rate based part to the newidle ratio compute, such that
low rate newidle will still have a high newidle ratio.

This cures the easyWave and fio workloads while not affecting the
schbench numbers either (which have a very high newidle rate).
