Public bug reported:

We've found on some Apollo Lake system stalls for around 4 seconds on
function `wait_for_completion` when creating nodes in devtmpfs. With 70+
nodes created it can be stalled for 5+ minutes when booting.

With bisecting we've found the patch can fix this issue:

    sched/fair: Fix new task's load avg removed from source CPU in
wake_up_new_task()

This patch can be clean picked, and shows positive result on multiple
Apollo Lake system. The patch is already in v4.5+ so Yakkety is not
affected.
