Well, since select_idle_sibling() is on LLC; the early test on
cpus_share_cache(prev,this) seems to actually make sense.

But then cutting out all the other bits seems wrong. Not in the least
because !NUMA_BALACING should also still keep working.

I think we want to retain the existing behaviour for everything
larger than LLC, and when NUMA_BALANCING, smaller than NUMA.

Also note that your use of task_h_load() in the new numa thing suffers
from exactly the problem effective_load() is trying to solve.
