i mean in ff277d4 commit:

se->vruntime += cfs->min_vruntime  (switched_to_fair())
se->vruntime = se->vruntime or bonused value (place_entity())

after my patch:

se->vruntime += cfs->min_vruntime  (switched_to_fair())
se->vruntime = se->vruntime or bonused value (place_entity())

---

SAME!!!

in addtion, se->vruntime already had a bonused value if eligible,
when it was detached from cfs_rq.
