stable inclusion from stable-5.10.50 commit c576472a051a9975e2433de6c80ed27acea2d6f9 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I84IKS CVE: NA

--------------------------------

[ Upstream commit fecfcbc288e9f4923f40fd23ca78a6acdc7fdf6c ]

RT keeps track of the utilization on a per-rq basis with the structure avg_rt. This utilization is updated during task_tick_rt(), put_prev_task_rt() and set_next_task_rt(). However, when the current running task changes its policy, set_next_task_rt() which would usually take care of updating the utilization when the rq starts running RT tasks, will not see a such change, leaving the avg_rt structure outdated. When that very same task will be dequeued later, put_prev_task_rt() will then update the utilization, based on a wrong last_update_time, leading to a huge spike in the RT utilization signal.

The signal would eventually recover from this issue after few ms. Even if no RT tasks are run, avg_rt is also updated in __update_blocked_others(). But as the CPU capacity depends partly on the avg_rt, this issue has nonetheless a significant impact on the scheduler.

Fix this issue by ensuring a load update when a running task changes its policy to RT.
