[PATCH 2/3] sched/core: handle overflow in cpu_shares_write_u64
From: Konstantin Khlebnikov
Date: Wed Feb 27 2019 - 03:10:26 EST
Bit shift in scale_load() could overflow shares. This patch saturates
it to MAX_SHARES like following sched_group_set_shares().
Example:
# echo 9223372036854776832 > cpu.shares
# cat cpu.shares
Before patch: 1024
After pattch: 262144
