Subject: [PATCH 0/2][v3] sched: Clean up newidle_balance() and pick_next_task()

As Peter suggested, here are two minor code clean up in the scheduler:
1. turn newidle_balance() into a static function.
2. code extraction in pick_next_task() for future re-use.

Chen Yu (2):
sched: Make newidle_balance() static again
sched: Extract the task putting code from pick_next_task()

Subject: [PATCH 1/2][v3] sched: Make newidle_balance() static again

After Commit 6e2df0581f56 ("sched: Fix pick_next_task() vs 'change'
pattern race"), there is no need to expose newidle_balance() as it
is only used within fair.c file. Change this function back to static again.

No functional change.

Introduce a new function put_prev_task_balance() to do the balance
when necessary, and then put previous task back to the run queue.
This function is extracted from pick_next_task() to prepare for

v3: According to Steven's suggestion, fix the comment
to change put_next_task() to put_prev_task()

Rename finish_prev_task() to put_prev_task_balance()
as this reflects what we do before picking a new task.

Per Valentin's suggestion, put the declaration of
struct sched_class within the ifdef, given it isn't
used outside of it.
