Peter Zijlstra 3a47d5124a sched/fair: Fix fairness issue on migration
Pavan reported that in the presence of very light tasks (or cgroups)
the placement of migrated tasks can cause severe fairness issues.

The problem is that enqueue_entity() places the task before it updates
time, thereby it can place the task far in the past (remember that
light tasks will shoot virtual time forward at a high speed, so in
relation to the pre-existing light task, we can land far in the past).

This is done because update_curr() needs the current task, and we
might be placing the current task.

The obvious solution is to differentiate between the current and any
other task; placing the current before we update time, and placing any
other task after, such that !curr tasks end up at the current moment
in time, and not in the past.
