The patch clearly says that this is about utilization but what happens
to load and runnable load for the rt rq part when you call
___update_load_sum() with load=[0,1] and runnable=[0,1]?
It looks like that the math would require 1024 instead of 1 for load and
runnable so that we would see a load_avg or runnable_load_avg != 0.
1594.075128: bprint: update_rt_rq_load_avg: now=1593937228087 cpu=4 running=1
1594.075129: bprint: update_rt_rq_load_avg: delta=3068 cpu=4 load=1 runnable=1
running=1 scale_freq=1024 scale_cpu=1024 periods=2
1594.075130: bprint: update_rt_rq_load_avg: load_sum=23927 +2879
runnable_load_sum=23927 +2879 util_sum=24506165 +2948096
1594.075130: bprint: update_rt_rq_load_avg: load_avg=0 runnable_load_avg=0
util_avg=513
IMHO, the patch should say whether load and runnable load are supported as well
or not.
