In the newidle balance, the rq->idle_stamp may set to a non-zero value
if it cannot pull any task.
In the wakeup, it will detect the rq->idle_stamp, and updates
the rq->avg_idle, then ends the CPU idle status by setting rq->idle_stamp
to zero.
Besides the wakeup, current code does not end the CPU idle status
when a task is moved to the idle CPU, such as fork/clone, execve,
or other cases.
This patch set tries to resolve it.
Tested this patch set with Specjbb:
There is no regression for this patch set

Remove "this_rq->idle_stamp = 0;" in patch 1.
