[PATCH v2 1/2] sched: fix init NOHZ_IDLE flag

[Vincent Guittot <vincent.guittot@linaro.org>]

On my smp platform which is made of 5 cores in 2 clusters,I have the
nr_busy_cpu field of sched_group_power struct that is not null when the
platform is fully idle. The root cause seems to be:
During the boot sequence, some CPUs reach the idle loop and set their
NOHZ_IDLE flag while waiting for others CPUs to boot. But the nr_busy_cpus
field is initialized later with the assumption that all CPUs are in the busy
state whereas some CPUs have already set their NOHZ_IDLE flag.
We clear the NOHZ_IDLE flag when nr_busy_cpus is initialized in order to
have a coherent configuration.
