3.16.36-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]>

commit 9916e214998a4a363b152b637245e5c958067350 upstream.

Remove the direct {push,pull} balancing operations from
switched_{from,to}_rt() / prio_changed_rt() and use the balance
callback queue.

Again, err on the side of too many reschedules; since too few is a
hard bug while too many is just annoying.
