Paul, With sched_slice, we need to set the runnable avg sum/period after new task assigned to a specific CPU. So, set them __sched_fork is meaningless. and then __update_task_entity_contrib(&p->se) also no reason to use. I am going to pick up the old patch and drop this one. that also avoid to declare it in sched.h. What's your comment of this?
