[PATCH v4 06/24] sched/fair: Collect load-balancing stats for IPC classes

[Ricardo Neri <ricardo.neri-calderon@linux.intel.com>]

When selecting the busiest scheduling group between two otherwise identical
groups of types asym_packing or fully_busy, IPC classes can be used to
break the tie.

Compute the IPC class performance score for a scheduling group. It is
defined as the sum of the IPC scores of the tasks at the back of each
runqueue in the group. Load balancing starts by pulling tasks from the back
of the runqueue first, making this tiebreaker more useful.

Also, track the IPC class with the lowest score in the scheduling group. A
task of this class will be pulled when the destination CPU has lower
priority than the fully_busy busiest group.

These two metrics will be used during idle load balancing to compute the
current and the potential IPC class score of a scheduling group in a
subsequent changeset.

Changes since v3:
 * Do not compute the IPCC stats using the current tasks of runqueues.
   Instead, use the tasks at the back of the queue. These are the tasks
   that will be pulled first during load balance. (Vincent)

Changes since v2:
 * Also excluded deadline and realtime tasks from IPCC stats. (Dietmar)
 * Also excluded tasks that cannot run on the destination CPU from the
   IPCC stats.
 * Folded struct sg_lb_ipcc_stats into struct sg_lb_stats. (Dietmar)
 * Reworded description sg_lb_stats::min_ipcc. (Ionela)
 * Handle errors of arch_get_ipcc_score(). (Ionela)

Changes since v1:
 * Implemented cleanups and reworks from PeterZ. Thanks!
 * Used the new interface names.
