One heads up, our review tooling caught this after I sent the
Tested-by. The revert was written after commit 80390ead2080
("sched/fair: Separate se->vlag from se->vprot") took vlag and vprot
out of their union, and 6.18 still has the union. Without that split
first, the rel_vprot path in the new reweight_entity() scales vlag
twice and curr's vruntime comes out wrong.
