sched: Rate-limit nohz

Browse Source 
Entering nohz code on every micro-idle is costing ~10% throughput for netperf
TCP_RR when scheduling cross-cpu.  Rate limiting entry fixes this, but raises
ticks a bit.  On my Q6600, an idle box goes from ~85 interrupts/sec to 128.

The higher the context switch rate, the more nohz entry costs.  With this patch
and some cycle recovery patches in my tree, max cross cpu context switch rate is
improved by ~16%, a large portion of which of which is this ratelimiting.
