Not sure that this is the right way to solve this problem because you
continue to attach the task twice without detaching it in the mean
time:
- once during the copy of the process in cpu_cgroup_fork (you skip the
attach of load average but the task is still attached to the local
cpu)
In the mean time, sched_entity is initialized and the last_update_time is reset
- one more time when the task is enqueued because the last_update_time
has been reset (this time you don't skip the attache of load_avg

Should you better detach the sched_entity with a copy of its parent
metrics before initializing it and attaching it to the new cpu ?
