right,.. uhm, except that you forgot all the other fixes and
generalizations I had,..

The LB_START/LB_COMPLETE stuff is needed to fix CFS load balancing. It
now always iterates the first sysctl_sched_nr_migrate tasks, and if it
doesn't find any there, just gives up - which isn't too big of a problem
with it set to 32, but if you drop it to 2/4 stuff starts valing apart.

And the break I had here, only checks classes above and equal to the
current class.

This again is needed when you have more classes.
