  There are some double rq clock update warnings are triggered.

For the __balance_push_cpu_stop() case, we remove update_rq_clock() from
the __migrate_task() function to avoid double updating the rq clock.
And in order to avoid missing rq clock update, add update_rq_clock()
call before migration_cpu_stop() calls __migrate_task().

For the unthrottle_cfs_rq() case, we use rq_clock_start_loop_update() to
prevent multiple calls to update_rq_clock() in unthrottle_cfs_rq().

Note that the rq clock has been updated before the set_rq_offline()
function runs, so we don't need to call update_rq_clock() in
unthrottle_offline_cfs_rqs().

This reads like 3 separate issues -- in which case this ought to be 3
separate patches.

This does not restore the flag, it clears the flag.

I will do it in the next version.

Thanks for your review.
I will also modify it in the next version.
