We need this to propagate the change in other place like cpufreq

It would be simpler and more readable to clear UPDATE_TG or not set it
from the beginning
IIUC, you rely on the fact that a decay happens every 1024 us of the
cfs_rq_clock_pelt() which is scaled by frequency and cpu compute
capacity. So you can end up with a cfs_rq_clock_pelt() that is far
slower than real clock and the 1ms can easily be extended to dozens of
ms
