Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 06/13] sched/fair: Fix the min_vruntime update logic in dequeue_entity()

From: Song Muchun <smuchun@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 9845c49cc9bbb317a0bc9e9cf78d8e09d54c9af0 ]

The comment and the code around the update_min_vruntime() call in
dequeue_entity() are not in agreement.

>From commit:

  b60205c7c558 ("sched/fair: Fix min_vruntime tracking")

I think that we want to update min_vruntime when a task is sleeping/migrating.
So, the check is inverted there - fix it.
