i am very sorry for my wrong patch, with which i cannot achieve what i intend.

what i intended is to use rq_of(cfs_rq)'s nr_number, not rq_of(cfs_rq)->cfs's,
so that __sched_period() returns a period which a rq can have. i need resend 
patch :( but i wonder what do you think about my basic concern?

thank you,
