Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] sched/fair: Clean up attach_entity_load_avg()

attach_entity_load_avg() is called (indirectly) from:

 - switched_to_fair(): switch between classes to fair
 - task_move_group_fair(): move between task groups
 - enqueue_entity_load_avg(): enqueue entity

Only in switched_to_fair() is it possible that the task's last_update_time
is not 0 and therefore the task needs sched avgs update, so move the task
sched avgs update to switched_to_fair() only. In addition, code comments are
clarified.

No functionality change.
