This change looks good. There maybe other candidates which might get simplified 
as well. for example, update_blocked_averages. (and then there are some 
like balance_push_set which maybe borderline when it comes to such simplification)

This might need change in the function name too. perception here is that, is the 
CPU idle without task p. 
Otherwise LGTM.
