When a task is migrated out, there is a probability that the tg->load_avg
value will become abnormal. The reason is as follows.

1. Due to the 1ms update period limitation in update_tg_load_avg(), there
is a possibility that the reduced load_avg is not updated to tg->load_avg
when a task migrates out.
2. Even though __update_blocked_fair() traverses the leaf_cfs_rq_list and
calls update_tg_load_avg() for cfs_rqs that are not fully decayed, the key
function cfs_rq_is_decayed() does not check whether
cfs->tg_load_avg_contrib is null. Consequently, in some cases,
__update_blocked_fair() removes cfs_rqs whose avg.load_avg has not been
updated to tg->load_avg.

Add a check of cfs_rq->tg_load_avg_contrib in cfs_rq_is_decayed(),
which fixes the case (2.) mentioned above.

Changes:
v1 -> v2: 
- Another option to fix the bug. Check cfs_rq->tg_load_avg_contrib in 
cfs_rq_is_decayed() to avoid early removal from the leaf_cfs_rq_list.
- Link to v1 : https://lore.kernel.org/cgroups/20250804130326.57523-1-xupengbo@oppo.com/
v2 -> v3:
- Check if cfs_rq->tg_load_avg_contrib is 0 derectly.
- Link to v2 : https://lore.kernel.org/cgroups/20250805144121.14871-1-xupengbo@oppo.com/
v3 -> v4:
- Fix typo
- Link to v3 : https://lore.kernel.org/cgroups/20250826075743.19106-1-xupengbo@oppo.com/
v4 -> v5:
- Amend the commit message
- Link to v4 : https://lore.kernel.org/cgroups/20250826084854.25956-1-xupengbo@oppo.com/

After some preliminary discussion and analysis, I think it is feasible to
directly check if cfs_rq->tg_load_avg_contrib is 0 in cfs_rq_is_decay().
So patch v3 was submitted.

Please send emails to a different email address <xupengbo1029@163.com>
after September 3, 2025, after that date <xupengbo@oppo.com> will expire
for personal reasons.

Thanks,
