i don't think relative vruntime is calculated to handle the special case
you mentioned. i think the calculation is necessary for all cases detaching
a task from a cfs_rq.

i think absolute vruntime is calculated in enqueue_entuty() only when the
task is on rq. therefore in the case that the task is not on rq,
switched_to_fair() has to calculate the absolute vruntime instread.

please refer my another reply, and let me know if i missed something.
