You are definitely right, added.

Added this too, thank you.

Well, both yes and no here.
If we simply move the env.loop_break assignment after "more_balance" label,
we will break the handling LBF_NEED_BREAK case.

But you are right, the new_dst_cpu case should also not just reset loop_break to
SCHED_NR_MIGRATE_BREAK, but do the same min() calculation.

So i've added one more label before the env.loop_break = min(...) and used it in
the new_dst_cpu case.

Yep, dropped it, thank you.
