sched/fair: Make calculate_imbalance() independent
Rik noticed that calculate_imbalance() relies on update_sd_pick_busiest() to guarantee that busiest->sum_nr_running > busiest->group_capacity_factor. Break this implicit assumption (with the intent of not providing it anymore) by having calculat_imbalance() verify it and not rely on others.
