sched/fair: Fix the update of blocked load when newly idle

With commit:

31e77c93e432 ("sched/fair: Update blocked load when newly idle")

... we release the rq->lock when updating blocked load of idle CPUs.

This opens a time window during which another CPU can add a task to this
CPU's cfs_rq.

The check for newly added task of idle_balance() is not in the common path.
Move the out label to include this check.
