sched/nohz: Fix rq->cpu_load calculations some more
commit 5aaa0b7a2ed5b12692c9ffb5222182bd558d3146 upstream. Follow up on commit 556061b00 ("sched/nohz: Fix rq->cpu_load[] calculations") since while that fixed the busy case it regressed the mostly idle case. Add a callback from the nohz exit to also age the rq->cpu_load[] array. This closes the hole where either there was no nohz load balance pass during the nohz, or there was a 'significant' amount of idle time between the last nohz balance and the nohz exit. So we'll update unconditionally from the tick to not insert any accidental 0 load periods while busy, and we try and catch up from nohz idle balance and nohz exit. Both these are still prone to missing a jiffy, but that has always been the case.
