2.6.35-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------
Commit: da2b71edd8a7db44fe1746261410a981f3e03632 upstream

Currently sched_avg_update() (which updates rt_avg stats in the rq)
is getting called from scale_rt_power() (in the load balance context)
which doesn't take rq->lock.

Fix it by moving the sched_avg_update() to more appropriate
update_cpu_load() where the CFS load gets updated as well.
