Subject: [RESEND PATCH 3/3 v5] sched: Remove task and group entity load_avg when they are dead

When task exits or group is destroyed, the entity's load_avg should be
removed from its parent cfs_rq's load_avg. Otherwise, it will take time
for the parent cfs_rq to decay the dead entity's load_avg to 0, which
is not desired.
