[RFC PATCH 2/3] sched/fair: Sync se with root cfs_rq

From: Dietmar Eggemann
Date: Wed Jun 01 2016 - 15:39:59 EST


Since task utilization is accrued only on the root cfs_rq, there are a
couple of places where the se has to be synced with the root cfs_rq:

(1) The root cfs_rq has to be updated in attach_entity_load_avg() for
an se representing a task in a tg other than the root tg before
the se utilization can be added to it.

(2) The last_update_time value of the root cfs_rq can be higher
than the one of the cfs_rq the se is enqueued in. Call
__update_load_avg() on the se with the last_update_time value of
the root cfs_rq before removing se's utilization from the root
cfs_rq in [remove|detach]_entity_load_avg().

In case the difference between the last_update_time value of the cfs_rq
and the root cfs_rq is smaller than 1024ns, the additional calls to
__update_load_avg() will bail early.
