sched: Disable wakeup balancing

Sysbench thinks SD_BALANCE_WAKE is too agressive and kbuild doesn't
really mind too much, SD_BALANCE_NEWIDLE picks up most of the
slack.

On a dual socket, quad core, dual thread nehalem system:

sysbench (--num_threads=16):

 SD_BALANCE_WAKE-: 13982 tx/s
 SD_BALANCE_WAKE+: 15688 tx/s

kbuild (-j16):

 SD_BALANCE_WAKE-: 47.648295846  seconds time elapsed   ( +-   0.312% )
 SD_BALANCE_WAKE+: 47.608607360  seconds time elapsed   ( +-   0.026% )

(same within noise)
