For now, core pick of core scheduling relies on min_vruntime to be fresh,
so please just fix commit eab03c23c2a1 to preserve its original behavior
by moving update_min_vruntime() to proper position. And behavior change
can be posted separated.

BTW it seems unnecessary to include a cover-letter for a single patch.

Thanks,
Abel
