If load_balance() fails to migrate any tasks because all tasks were affined, load_balance() removes the source CPU from consideration and attempts to redo and balance among the new subset of CPUs. There is a bug in this code path where the algorithm considers all active CPUs in the system (minus the source that was just masked out). This is not valid for two reasons: some active CPUs may not be in the current scheduling domain and one of the active CPUs is dst_cpu. These CPUs should not be considered, as we cannot pull load from them. Instead of failing out of load_balance(), we may end up redoing the search with no valid CPUs and incorrectly concluding the domain is balanced. Additionally, if the group_imbalance flag was just set, it may also be incorrectly unset, thus the flag will not be seen by other CPUs in future load_balance() runs as that algorithm intends. Fix the check by removing CPUs not in the current domain and the dst_cpu from considertation, thus limiting the evaluation to valid remaining CPUs from which load might be migrated.
