[PATCH 2/4] sched: simplify wake_affine for single socket case

[riel]

From: Rik van Riel <riel@xxxxxxxxxx>

Then this_cpu and prev_cpu are in the same socket, select_idle_sibling
will do its thing regardless of the return value of wake_affine. Just
return true and don't look at all the other things.
