Subject: [PATCH] sched:

As demonstrated by Eric, we really need to call __set_task_cpu() early
in the fork() path to properly initialize the various task state --
specifically the cgroup state through set_task_rq().

[ we could probably fix this by explicitly calling __set_task_cpu() from
  sched_fork(), but lets try that for the next cycle and simply revert
  to the old behaviour for now. ]
