[PATCH] sched: refill quota for current period when refilling timer activates

[Konstantin Khlebnikov]

Period timer deactivates if task group has no activity during past period,
i.e. if were no throttle and runtime from global pool weren't consumed.
When timer activates back global pool contains unpredictable amount of
expired runtime allocated long ago. In some cases this works fine and
task could use it until next refill. But series short execution slices
could drain all that leftovers because each switch expires local poll.
In this case task group will be throttled until quota refill.

This patch refills quota right at the moment of timer's activation.
