Run idle threads with preempt disabled.
Also corrected a bugs in arm26's cpu_idle (make it actually call schedule()).
How did it ever work before?
Might fix the CPU hotplugging hang which Nigel Cunningham noted.
We think the bug hits if the idle thread is preempted after checking
need_resched() and before going to sleep, then the CPU offlined.
After calling stop_machine_run, the CPU eventually returns from preemption and
into the idle thread and goes to sleep. The CPU will continue executing
previous idle and have no chance to call play_dead.
By disabling preemption until we are ready to explicitly schedule, this bug is
fixed and the idle threads generally become more robust.

The intermittent scheduling of the migration thread at ultra high priority
makes the smp nice handling see that runqueue as being heavily loaded. The
migration thread itself actually handles the balancing so its influence on
priority balancing should be ignored.

The priority biasing was off by mutliplying the total load by the total
priority bias and this ruins the ratio of loads between runqueues. This
patch should correct the ratios of loads between runqueues to be proportional
to overall load. -2nd attempt.

This patch fixes a divide-by-zero error that I hit on a two-way i386
machine. rq->nr_running is tested to be non-zero, but may change by the
time it is used in the division. Saving the value to a local variable
ensures that the same value that is checked is used in the division.

To intensify the 'nice' support across physical cpus on SMP we can bias the
loads on idle rebalancing. To prevent idle rebalance from trying to pull tasks
from queues that appear heavily loaded we only bias the load if there is more
than one task running.
Add some minor micro-optimisations and have only one return from __source_load
and __target_load functions.
Fix the fact that target_load was not biased by priority when type == 0.

This patch implements 'nice' support across physical cpus on SMP.
It introduces an extra runqueue variable prio_bias which is the sum of the
(inverted) static priorities of all the tasks on the runqueue.
This is then used to bias busy rebalancing between runqueues to obtain good
distribution of tasks of different nice values. By biasing the balancing only
during busy rebalancing we can avoid having any significant loss of throughput
by not affecting the carefully tuned idle balancing already in place. If all
tasks are running at the same nice level this code should also have minimal
effect. The code is optimised out in the !CONFIG_SMP case.
