Hi Randy,
thanks for the report.

Same here Ingo, I cannot reproduce on arm64 and !CONFIG_CGROUPS and
testing on tip/sched/core.

However, if you like, the following patch can make that code a
bit more "robust".

Best,
Patrick

Subject: [PATCH 1/1] sched/core: uclamp: Fix compile error on !CONFIG_CGROUPS

Randy reported a compiler error on x86_64 and !CONFIG_CGROUPS which is due
to uclamp_update_active_tasks() using the undefined css_task_iter().

Since uclamp_update_active_tasks() is used only when cgroup support is
enabled, fix that by properly guarding that function at compile time.
