Subject: [PATCH v3] sched: fix first task of a task group is attached twice

The cfs_rq->avg.last_update_time is initialize to 0 with the main effect
that the 1st sched_entity that will be attached, will keep its
last_update_time set to 0 and will attached once again during the
enqueue.
Initialize cfs_rq->avg.last_update_time to 1 instead.

Signed-off-by: Vincent Guittot <vincent.guittot@...aro.org>
---

v3:
- add initialization of load_last_update_time_copy for not 64bits system
- move init into init_cfs_rq

v2:
- rq_clock_task(rq_of(cfs_rq)) can't be used because lock is not held
