Essentially rebalance_domains = rebalance_tick. However, we
do the idle calculation on our own. This removes some processing
from scheduler_tick into rebalance_domains().

While we are at it: Take the opportunity to avoid taking
the request queue lock in wake_priority_sleeper if
there are no running processes.

Can you split this out? It is good without the tasklet based
rebalancing.
