Vincent Guittot bb3485c8ac sched/fair: Fix load_balance redo for !imbalance
It can happen that load_balance() finds a busiest group and then a
busiest rq but the calculated imbalance is in fact 0.

In such situation, detach_tasks() returns immediately and lets the
flag LBF_ALL_PINNED set. The busiest CPU is then wrongly assumed to
have pinned tasks and removed from the load balance mask. then, we
redo a load balance without the busiest CPU. This creates wrong load
balance situation and generates wrong task migration.

If the calculated imbalance is 0, it's useless to try to find a
busiest rq as no task will be migrated and we can return immediately.

This situation can happen with heterogeneous system or smp system when
RT tasks are decreasing the capacity of some CPUs.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
