[PATCH 6/7] sched: Rename root_domain->overload to should_idle_balance

[Morten Rasmussen <morten.rasmussen@arm.com>]

From: Valentin Schneider <valentin.schneider@arm.com>

The name "overload" is not very explicit, especially since it doesn't
use any concept of "load" coming from load-tracking signals. For now it
simply tracks if any of the CPUs in root_domain has more than one
runnable task, and is then used to decide whether idle balance should be
performed.

As such, this commit changes that flag's name to 'should_idle_balance',
which makes its role more explicit.
