I am confuzled by this thing..  so uclamp_se already has a value,bucket,
which per the prior code is the effective one.

Now; I think I see why you want another value; you need the second to
store the original value for when the system limits change and we must
re-evaluate.

So why are you not adding something like:

	unsigned int orig_value : bits_per(SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE);

That would then turn into something like:

	unsigned int high = READ_ONCE(sysctl_sched_uclamp_util_max);
	unsigned int low  = READ_ONCE(sysctl_sched_uclamp_util_min);

	uclamp_se->orig_value = value;
	uclamp_se->value = clamp(value, low, high);

And then determine bucket_id based on value.

Should you not update all tasks?
