i am sorry for not catching what you want to say. enqueue_entity_load_avg()
calls __update_load_avg() in normal case, that is, not having changed its 
cfs_rq, while in case having changed its cfs_rq, we only need to attach the
average load assuming that __update_load_avg() was already called when its
cfs_rq was changed.

is there anything i missed? could you let me know if yes?
