I just wanted to put it under one line instead of using #ifdefs in my
second hunk,
so that is a matter of taste. Also, please find below different
variants of how it can be
rewriten:

<variant 1>
#ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT
    if (env->idle != CPU_NEWLY_IDLE)
#endif
        if ((load / 2) > env->imbalance)
            goto next;
<variant 1>

<variant 2>
#ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT
    if (env->idle != CPU_NEWLY_IDLE &&
            (load / 2) > env->imbalance)
        goto next;
#else
    if ((load / 2) > env->imbalance)
        goto next;
#endif
<variant 2>

If somebody has any preferences or concerns, please comment, i will
re-spin the patch.
