What happens is that the lag of the very last entity is 0 per definition -- the average of one element matches the value of that element. Therefore place_entity() will match the condition skipping the lag adjustment: if (sched_feat(PLACE_LAG) && cfs_rq->nr_queued && se->vlag) { Without the 'se->vlag' condition -- it will attempt to adjust the zero lag even though we're inserting into an empty tree. Notably, we should have failed the 'cfs_rq->nr_queued' condition, but don't because they didn't get updated. Additionally, move update_load_add() after placement() as is consistent with other place_entity() users -- this change is non-functional, place_entity() does not use cfs_rq->load.
