I do not understand the cpu_active() check in select_fallback_rq(). x86 doesn't need it, and the recent commit dd9d3843755d "sched: Fix cpu_active_mask/cpu_online_mask race" documents the fact that on any architecture we can ignore !active starting from CPU_ONLINE stage.
But any possible reason why do we need this check in "fallback" must equally apply to select_task_rq().
