When triggering an active load balance, sd->nr_balance_failed is set to such a value that any further can_migrate_task() using said sd will ignore the output of task_hot(). This behaviour makes sense, as active load balance intentionally preempts a rq's running task to migrate it right away, but this asynchronous write is a bit shoddy, as the stopper thread might run active_load_balance_cpu_stop before the sd->nr_balance_failed write either becomes visible to the stopper's CPU or even happens on the CPU that appended the stopper work. Add a struct lb_env flag to denote active balancing, and use it in can_migrate_task(). Remove the sd->nr_balance_failed write that served the same purpose. Cleanup the LBF_DST_PINNED active balance special case.
