[PATCH 08/10] sched/balancing: Update run_rebalance_domains() comments

[Ingo Molnar]

The first sentence of the comment explaining run_rebalance_domains()
is historic and not true anymore:

    * run_rebalance_domains is triggered when needed from the scheduler tick.

.. contradicted/modified by the second sentence:

    * Also triggered for NOHZ idle balancing (with NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK set).

Avoid that kind of confusion straight away and explain from what
places sched_balance_softirq() is triggered.
