[patch 09/18] sched: add support for unthrottling group entities

From: Paul Turner
Date: Thu Jul 21 2011 - 19:02:58 EST


At the start of each period we refresh the global bandwidth pool. At this time
we must also unthrottle any cfs_rq entities who are now within bandwidth once
more (as quota permits).

Unthrottled entities have their corresponding cfs_rq->throttled flag cleared
and their entities re-enqueued.
