as you said, it should done here. :)

i mean the entity was already accounted the blocked time in __synchronize_entity_decay().

the thing to keep in mind is that, currently load tracking is done by per-entity. that is, the entity already has its own whole load_avg_contrib with considering the entity's blocked time, after __synchronize_entity_decay(). and cfs_rq can account the se's load by adding se->avg.load_avg_contrib to cfs_rq->runnable_load_avg, like enqueue_entity_load_avg() code.
wrong?
thanks, byungchul
