    sched: Fix cfs_rq->active assignment in sched_cfs_active_timer()
    
    sched_cfs_active_timer() is used to postpone decrementing of
    tg->nr_cpus_active and marking cfs_rq as inactive. It's need
    to give a possibility for a new tg task to stand on a hot cpu,
    where another tg's task gone to sleep a moment ago.
    
    See for dec_nr_active_cfs_rqs(), which postpone actions it does.
