[ Upstream commit a430d99e349026d53e2557b7b22bd2ebd61fe12a ]
In /proc/schedstat, lb_hot_gained reports the number hot tasks pulled during load balance. This value is incremented in can_migrate_task() if the task is migratable and hot. After incrementing the value, load balancer can still decide not to migrate this task leading to wrong accounting. Fix this by incrementing stats when hot tasks are detached. This issue only exists in detach_tasks() where we can decide to not migrate hot task even if it is migratable. However, in detach_one_task(), we migrate it unconditionally.
[Swapnil: Handled the case where nr_failed_migrations_hot was not accounted properly and wrote commit log]
