The main issue is the number of parameters used in these conditions
that makes helper function not really more readable.

not sure to catch the comment about inverted and miss the == case
The test splits runnable_load_avg is 3 ranges:
[0 .. (min_runnable_load - imbalance)] : use the
runnable_loab_avg/this_runnable_load which is significantly smaller
] (min_runnable_load - imbalance) .. (min_runnable_load + imbalance) [
: min_runnable_load and runnable_loab_avg/this_runnable_load are close
so we compare min_load_avg with avg_load/this_avg_load to choose
[(min_runnable_load + imbalance) .. ULONG_MAX] : use min_runnable_load

The condition is used when we look for the best other group in the
sched_domain and to compare the local group with this best other
group
