We can monitor the sum wait time of a task group since 'commit 3d6c50c27bd6
("sched/debug: Show the sum wait time of a task group")'. However this
wait_sum just represents the confilct between different task groups, since
it is simply sum the wait time of task_group's cfs_rq. And we still cannot
evaluate the conflict between all the tasks within hierarchy of this group,
so the hierarchy wait time is still needed.

Could you please give us a scene that we do need this hierarchy wait_sum,
despite the extra overhead?

Thus we introduce hierarchy wait_sum which summarizes the total wait sum of
all the tasks in the hierarchy of a group.

The 'cpu.stat' is modified to show the statistic, like:

nr_periods 0
nr_throttled 0
throttled_time 0
intergroup wait_sum 2842251984
hierarchy wait_sum 6389509389332798

From now on we can monitor both the wait_sum of intergroup and hierarchy,
which will inevitably help a system administrator know how intense the CPU
competition is within a task group and between different task groups. We
can calculate the wait rate of a task group based on hierarchy wait_sum and
cpuacct.usage.

For example:
X% = (current_wait_sum - last_wait_sum) / ((current_usage -
last_usage) + (current_wait_sum - last_wait_sum))

That means the task group paid X percentage of time on runqueue waiting
for the CPU.
