sched/fair: Exempt paused CPU from nohz idle balance

Browse Source 
A CPU can be paused while it is idle with it's tick stopped.
nohz_balance_exit_idle() should be called from the local CPU,
so it can't be called during pause which can happen remotely.
This results in paused CPU participating in the nohz idle balance,
which should be avoided. This can be done by calling

Fix this issue by calling nohz_balance_exit_idle() from the paused
CPU when it exits and enters idle again. This lazy approach avoids
waking the CPU from idle during pause.
