In case of enqueue_entity_load_avg(), that seems to be ok.

However, the problem is that he made it "entangled":

In enqueue_entity_load_avg():

	if (migrated)
		attach_entity_load_avg();

while in attach_entity_load_avg():

	if (!migrated)
		__update_load_avg();

so, if attach() is called from enqueue(), that if() is never true.

To Byungchul,

1) I suggest you not entangle the entire series by mixing problem
   sovling with code manipulating. That said, it is better you
   first solve the "move between task group" problem and the
   switch_to/from problem (if it is a problem, either way, comment
   with your explanation to how you deal with the lost record and why).
2) After that, make the code cleaner, without change to logic, especially
   avoid entangling the logic in order to do the code manipulation.
3) If you don't hate upper case letter, use it properly.

If it helps.

Thanks,
Yuyang
