sched: Bail out of yield_to when source and target runqueue has one task In case of undercomitted scenarios, especially in large guests yield_to overhead is significantly high. when run queue length of source and target is one, take an opportunity to bail out and return -ESRCH. This return condition can be further exploited to quickly come out of PLE handler. (History: Raghavendra initially worked on break out of kvm ple handler upon seeing source runqueue length = 1, but it had to export rq length). Peter came up with the elegant idea of return -ESRCH in scheduler core.
