[RFC PATCH 09/11] sched: Optimize the !power_savings_balance during find_busiest_group.

[Gautham R Shenoy <ego@in.ibm.com>]

We don't need to perform power_savings balance if either the cpu is NOT_IDLE
or if the sched_domain doesn't contain the SD_POWERSAVINGS_BALANCE flag set.

Currently, we check for these conditions multiple number of times, even though
these variables don't change over the scope of find_busiest_group().

Check once, and store the value in the already exiting "power_savings_balance"
variable.
