sched/fair: Clear SMT siblings after determining the core is not idle The clearing of SMT siblings from the SIS mask before checking for an idle core is a small but unnecessary cost. Defer the clearing of the siblings until the scan moves to the next potential target. The cost of this was not measured as it is borderline noise but it should be self-evident.
