     cgroup tree updates, but missed that schedule() can drop rq::lock
     for load balancing, which opens the race window for
     cgroup_move_task() which then observes half updated state.

     The fix is to solely use task::ps_flags instead of looking at the
     potentially mismatching scheduler state

   - Prevent an out-of-bounds access in uclamp caused bu a rounding
     division which can lead to an off-by-one error exceeding the
     buckets array size.

   - Prevent unfairness caused by missing load decay when a task is
     attached to a cfs runqueue.
