Subject[PATCH 3/3] sched: fix cgroup movement of waking process
There is a small race between try_to_wake_up() and sched_move_task(), which is trying
to move the process being woken up.

try_to_wake_up() on CPU0 sched_move_task() on CPU1
--------------------------------+---------------------------------
raw_spin_lock_irqsave(p->pi_lock)
task_waking_fair()
->p.se.vruntime -= cfs_rq->min_vruntime
ttwu_queue()
->send reschedule IPI to another CPU1
raw_spin_unlock_irqsave(p->pi_lock)
task_rq_lock()
-> tring to aquire both p->pi_lock and rq->lock
with IRQ disabled
task_move_group_fair()
->p.se.vruntime -= (old)cfs_rq->min_vruntime
->p.se.vruntime += (new)cfs_rq->min_vruntime
task_rq_unlock()

(via IPI)
sched_ttwu_pending()
raw_spin_lock(rq->lock)
ttwu_do_activate()
...
enqueue_entity()
child.se->vruntime += cfs_rq->min_vruntime
raw_spin_unlock(rq->lock)

As a result, vruntime of the process becomes far bigger than min_vruntime,
if (new)cfs_rq->min_vruntime >> (old)cfs_rq->min_vruntime.

This patch fixes this problem by just ignoring such process in task_move_group_fair(),
because the vruntime has already been normalized in task_waking_fair().
