sched: clear buddies more aggressively 

It was noticed that a task could get re-elected past its run quota due to buddy
affinities. This could increase latency a little. Cure it by more aggresively
clearing buddy state.

We do so in two situations:
 - when we force preempt
 - when we select a buddy to run
