sched: Fix rebalance interval calculation

The interval for checking scheduling domains if they are due to be
balanced currently depends on boot state NR_CPUS, which may not
accurately reflect the number of online CPUs at the time of check.

Thus replace NR_CPUS with num_online_cpus().

(ed: Should only affect those who set NR_CPUS really high, such as 4096
or so :-)
