sched/hotplug: Ensure only per-cpu kthreads run during hotplug

In preparation for migrate_disable(), make sure only per-cpu kthreads
are allowed to run on !active CPUs.

This is ran (as one of the very first steps) from the cpu-hotplug
task which is a per-cpu kthread and completion of the hotplug
operation only requires such tasks.

This constraint enables the migrate_disable() implementation to wait
for completion of all migrate_disable regions on this CPU at hotplug
time without fear of any new ones starting.

This replaces the unlikely(rq->balance_callbacks) test at the tail of
context_switch with an unlikely(rq->balance_work), the fast path is
not affected.
