[PATCH resend] sched: Fix sd->*_idx limit range avoiding overflow

From: libin
Date: Mon Apr 08 2013 - 02:40:35 EST


Commit 201c373e8e ("sched/debug: Limit sd->*_idx range on sysctl")
was an incomplete bug fix. This patch fixs sd->*_idx limit range to
[0 ~ CPU_LOAD_IDX_MAX - 1] avioding array overflow caused by setting
sd->*_idx to CPU_LOAD_IDX_MAX on sysctl.
