Ok, how about this. Neither task is going anywhere. Don't worry about
what all may or may not have happened in between, just copy the parent's
vruntime as it sits NOW (wakeup time), add in any unaccounted parent
vruntime, and redo the child's offset. The child's runqueue has just
been updated, the only vruntime missing, if any, is that sitting in the
parent.
sched: fix sched_fair.c::task_new_fair vruntime bug.
b5d9d734 fixed the problem of a forking task's child gaining vruntime..
IFF the child/parent shared a runqueue. In the other case, it broke
fairness all to pieces by setting the child's vruntime to whatever task
happened to be current on the child's runqueue at wakeup time. Fix this
by selecting a runqueue for the child at wakeup time, copying the parent's
vruntime, adding any unaccounted vruntime, and redoing cross cpu offset.
Also, since setting scheduling policy requires the tasklist lock, move
sched_fork() under the tasklist lock in copy_process();
