Sorry, it's actually the same :-)

OK, so:

-               /* Propagate pending load changes to the parent */
-               if (cfs_rq->tg->se[cpu])
+               /* Propagate pending load changes to the parent if any */
+               if (blocked_update_needed(cfs_rq->tg->se[cpu]))

and

+static inline bool blocked_update_needed(struct sched_entity *se)
+{
+       struct cfs_rq *gcfs_rq = group_cfs_rq(se);
+
+       /* cfs_rq of a root task_group has no sched_entity counterpart */
+       if (!se)
+               return false;
+
+       /*
+        * If sched_entity still have not null load or utilization, we
have to
+        * decay it.
+        */
....

Would make sense to me ...
