[PATCH 04/10] sched: rt-group: fix RR buglet

From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Thu Jun 19 2008 - 08:35:40 EST


In tick_task_rt() we first call update_curr_rt() which can dequeue a runqueue
due to it running out of runtime, and then we try to requeue it, of it also
having exhausted its RR quota. Obviously requeueing something that is no longer
on the runqueue will not have the expected result.
