in case of migration, we should not call __update_load_avg() when attaching,
because se->avg.last_update_time is not meaningless on changed cfs_rq. that
is why attach_entity_load_avg() conditionally calls __update_load_avg().

enqueue() calls attach() only when migrating, so the if() should be never
true. i think it is normal. is it a problem?

i think i didn't mix any problems. i solved each problem indivisually.

patch 2, 3 solve the former, and patch 4 solves the latter.

how i deal with the lost record, is the "decaying" as you can see easily.
i think it is the most natural way to deal with it.

i think i should modify patches if i entangled code, and could you tell me
where i did it?

i will try it.
