Subject: [34-longterm 087/247] sched, cgroup: Fixup broken cgroup movement

From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@...llo.nl>

                   -------------------
    This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release.
    If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment.
                   -------------------

commit b2b5ce022acf5e9f52f7b78c5579994fdde191d4 upstream.

Dima noticed that we fail to correct the ->vruntime of sleeping tasks
when we move them between cgroups.
