Tasks may be throttled when holding locks for a long time by current
cfs bandwidth control mechanism once users set a too small quota/period
ratio, which can result whole system get stuck[1].
In order to prevent the above situation from happening, this patch adds
sysctl_sched_cfs_bandwidth_min_ratio in /proc/sys/kernel, which indicates
the minimum percentage of quota/period users can set. The default value is
zero and users can set quota and period without triggering this
constraint.
There's so many other sorts of bad inputs that can get you stuck here
that I'm not sure it's ever safe against lockups to provide direct write
access to an untrusted user. I'm not totally opposed but it seems like
an incomplete fix to a broken (non-default) configuration.
