Right, we do need to call sync_entity_load_avg() at some point before
calling task_util(), but we don't need to re-call it in strf()
after in this case. So my point was just that if you want to re-work
the wake-up path and make sure we don't call sync_entity_load_avg()
if not needed then this might need fixing as well ... Or maybe we don't
care since re-calling sync_entity_load_avg() should be really cheap ...
