Any ideas about what to do with schedstats?
Do we really need balance on exec and fork as seperate
statistics?
Consolidate balance-on-exec with balance-on-fork. This is made easy
by the sched-domains RCU patches.

As well as the general goodness of code reduction, this allows
the runqueues to be unlocked during balance-on-fork.

schedstats is a problem. Maybe just have balance-on-event instead
of distinguishing fork and exec?
