[RFC patch v3 13/20] sched: Tag the sched group as llc_balance if it has tasks prefer other LLC

[Tim Chen <tim.c.chen@linux.intel.com>]

During load balancing between LLCs, check whether there are tasks
preferring the destination LLC. If so, balance those tasks to the
destination LLC first.

Tag the sched_group that has tasks preferring to run on other LLCs
(non-local) with the group_llc_balance flag. This way, the load
balancer will later attempt to pull/push these tasks to their
preferred LLCs.
