sched: Fix and clean up rate-limit newidle code

Commit 1b9508f, "Rate-limit newidle" has been confirmed to fix
the netperf UDP loopback regression reported by Alex Shi.

This is a cleanup and a fix:

 - moved to a more out of the way spot

 - fix to ensure that balancing doesn't try to balance
   runqueues which haven't gone online yet, which can
   mess up CPU enumeration during boot.
