I've missed it. You are referring in the commit message to wrong change
(probably HEAD of that branch), while when you try to bisect, it
will point you to
ff7db0bf24db sched/numa: Prefer using an idle CPU as a migration target 
instead of comparing tasks

I think Mel can simply resend the patches with correct build if Ingo
is OK.

If Mel would decide to go with extended approach of ifdefs, then maybe
it's also good to put in there  numa_idle_core(), which actually uses
these test_idle_cores() and is_core_idle()
