[PATCH v2 5/7] sched/core: Reset RQCF_ACT_SKIP before unpinning rq->lock

From: Matt Fleming
Date: Wed Sep 21 2016 - 09:39:34 EST


rq_clock() is called from sched_info_{depart,arrive}() after resetting
RQCF_ACT_SKIP but prior to a call to update_rq_clock().

In preparation for pending patches that check whether the rq clock has
been updated inside of a pin context before rq_clock() is called, move
the reset of rq->clock_skip_update immediately before unpinning the rq
lock.

This will avoid the new warnings which check if update_rq_clock() is
being actively skipped.
