Ah, no, I simply wrote the changelog several days and a weekend after
the patch and completely forgot about it, its needed because
update_group_power() needs to have sched_domain::span_weight set up, so
it needs to be done sooner.

I guess I can split it into a separate patch before the other bits
though.
