Subject: [PATCH review for 4.9 15/50] sched/fair: Update rq clock before
 changing a task's CPU affinity

From: Wanpeng Li <wanpeng.li@...mail.com>

[ Upstream commit a499c3ead88ccf147fc50689e85a530ad923ce36 ]

This is triggered during boot when CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG is enabled:

 ---[ end trace dd94d92344cea9c6 ]---

The task is running && !queued, so there is no rq clock update before calling
set_curr_task().

This patch fixes it by updating rq clock after holding rq->lock/pi_lock
just as what other dequeue + put_prev + enqueue + set_curr story does.
