[PATCH 5/6] sched: rt-bandwidth fixes

From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Tue Aug 19 2008 - 06:45:26 EST


The last patch allows sysctl_sched_rt_runtime to disable bandwidth accounting
for the group scheduler - however it doesn't deal with sched_setscheduler(),
which will keep tasks out of groups that have no assigned runtime.

If we relax this, we get into the situation where RT tasks can get into a group
when we disable bandwidth control, and then starve them by enabling it again.

Rework the schedulability code to check for this condition and fail to turn
on bandwidth control with -EBUSY when this situation is found.
