The CFS wakeup code will only ever go through EAS / its fast path on "regular" wakeups (i.e. not on forks or execs). These are currently gated by a check against 'sd_flag', which would be SD_BALANCE_WAKE at wakeup. However, we now have a flag that explicitly tells us whether a wakeup is a "regular" one, so hinge those conditions on that flag instead.
