The default group id for un-clamped root tasks is 0 because of
this declaration, correct?

uclamp_group_get() also drops the reference on the previous group id.
The initial group id for uclamp_default[] i.e 0 is never claimed by
us. so we end up releasing it. But root group still points to group#0.
is this a problem?
