Then again, does this fix it?

        set_task_rq(p, task_cpu(p));

        /*
         * If the cfs_rq's last_update_time is 0, attach the sched avgs
         * won't be anything useful, as it will be decayed to 0 when any
         * sched_entity is enqueued to that cfs_rq.
         *
         * On the other hand, if the cfs_rq's last_update_time is 0, we
         * must reset the task's last_update_time to ensure we will attach
         * the sched avgs when the task is enqueued.
