Subject: [PATCH 5.15 089/124] sched/pelt: Fix attach_entity_load_avg() corner case

From: kuyo chang <kuyo.chang@...iatek.com>

[ Upstream commit 40f5aa4c5eaebfeaca4566217cb9c468e28ed682 ]

The warning in cfs_rq_is_decayed() triggered:

    SCHED_WARN_ON(cfs_rq->avg.load_avg ||
		  cfs_rq->avg.util_avg ||
		  cfs_rq->avg.runnable_avg)

There exists a corner case in attach_entity_load_avg() which will
cause load_sum to be zero while load_avg will not be.

Consider se_weight is 88761 as per the sched_prio_to_weight[] table.
Further assume the get_pelt_divider() is 47742, this gives:
se->avg.load_avg is 1.

However, calculating load_sum:

  se->avg.load_sum = div_u64(se->avg.load_avg * se->avg.load_sum, se_weight(se));
  se->avg.load_sum = 1*47742/88761 = 0.

Then enqueue_load_avg() adds this to the cfs_rq totals:

  cfs_rq->avg.load_avg += se->avg.load_avg;
  cfs_rq->avg.load_sum += se_weight(se) * se->avg.load_sum;

Resulting in load_avg being 1 with load_sum is 0, which will trigger
the WARN.
