Currently the task always wakes affine on this_cpu if the latter is
idle. Before waking up the task on this_cpu, we check that this_cpu
capacity is not significantly reduced because of RT tasks or irq
activity.

Use case where the number of irq and/or the time spent under irq is
important will take benefit of this because the task that is woken
up by irq or softirq will not use the same CPU than irq (and
softirq) but a idle one which share its cache.
