[PATCH 3/5] sched: Update rq clock before calling check_preempt_curr()

[Frederic Weisbecker]

check_preempt_curr() of fair class needs an uptodate sched clock
value to update runtime stats of the current task of the target's rq.

When a task is woken up, activate_task() is usually called right before
ttwu_do_wakeup() unless the task is still in the runqueue. In the latter
case we need to update the rq clock explicitly because activate_task()
isn't here to do the job for us.
