    Attempt to pick most energy efficient wakeup in find_idlest_{group,
    cpu}(). Finding the optimum target requires an exhaustive search
    through all cpus in the groups. Instead, the target group is determined
    based on load and probing the energy cost on a single cpu in each group.
    The target cpu is the cpu with the lowest energy cost.

    As noted in "sched: Energy model functions" we here have the big
    assumption that we never use load_idx != 0 for source{target}_load in
    find_target_group. A WARN_ON() is added to check if we break this
    assumption.
