sched: skip updating rq's next_balance under null SD

Was playing with sched_smt_power_savings/sched_mc_power_savings and
found out that while the scheduler domains are reconstructed when sysfs
settings change, rebalance_domains() can get triggered with null domain
on other cpus, which is setting next_balance to jiffies + 60*HZ.
Resulting in no idle/busy balancing for 60 seconds.

Fix this.
