Sched: fix skip_clock_update optimization
idle_balance() drops/retakes rq->lock, leaving the previous task vulnerable to set_tsk_need_resched(). Clear it after we return from balancing instead, and in setup_thread_stack() as well, so no successfully descheduled or never scheduled task has it set. Need resched confused the skip_clock_update logic, which assumes that the next call to update_rq_clock() will come nearly immediately after being set. Make the optimization robust against the waking a sleeper before it sucessfully deschedules case by checking that the current task has not been dequeued before setting the flag, since it is that useless clock update we're trying to save, and clear unconditionally in schedule() proper instead of conditionally in put_prev_task().
