Currently, migrating tasks to cpu0 unconditionally happens when the
heap is empty, since cp->elements[].cpu was initialized to 0(=cpu0).
We have to distinguish between the empty case and cpu0 to avoid the
unnecessary migrations. Therefore, it has to return an invalid value
e.i. -1 in that case.

Shouldn't you also set cp->elements[cpu].cpu to -1 in cpudl_clear (when you
set cp->elements[cpu].cpu to IDX_INVALID there)?

I messed up my words, I meant : "when setting cp->elements[cpu].idx to
IDX_INVALID there". Which means I need to call it a day :-)

Ah.. I agree with you. It might be a problem when removing the last
element.. Then I think the following change should also be applied
additionally. Right?
