sched: Move rq->idle_stamp up to the core
idle_balance() modifies the rq->idle_stamp field, making this information shared across core.c and fair.c. As we know if the cpu is going to idle or not with the previous patch, let's encapsulate the rq->idle_stamp information in core.c by moving it up to the caller. The idle_balance() function returns true in case a balancing occured and the cpu won't be idle, false if no balance happened and the cpu is going idle.
