sched: Clean up rebalance_domains() load-balance interval calculation

Instead of the possible multiple-evaluation of num_online_cpus()
in rebalance_domains() that Linus reported, avoid it altogether
in the normal case since it's implemented with a Hamming weight
function over a cpu bitmask which can be darn expensive for those
with big iron.

This also makes it cleaner, smaller and documents the code.
