Yes, this patch was put at last in the v1.

In this v2, the following patch 07/10 make attach_entity_cfs_rq() to use
update_load_avg(DO_ATTACH) to do conditional attach.

So I want to get rid of "sched_feat(ATTACH_AGE_LOAD) ? 0 : SKIP_AGE_LOAD"
earlier in this patch, or have to write like this:


  int flags = UPDATE_TG | DO_ATTACH;

  update_load_avg(cfs_rq, se, sched_feat(ATTACH_AGE_LOAD) ? flags : SKIP_AGE_LOAD | flags);


Thanks.
