sched: Return unused runtime on group dequeue

Browse Source 
When a local cfs_rq blocks we return the majority of its remaining quota to the
global bandwidth pool for use by other runqueues.

We do this only when the quota is current and there is more than
min_cfs_rq_quota [1ms by default] of runtime remaining on the rq.

In the case where there are throttled runqueues and we have sufficient
bandwidth to meter out a slice, a second timer is kicked off to handle this
delivery, unthrottling where appropriate.

Using a 'worst case' antagonist which executes on each cpu
for 1ms before moving onto the next on a fairly large machine:

no quota generations:

 197.47 ms       /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage
 199.46 ms       /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage
 205.46 ms       /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage
 198.46 ms       /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage
 208.39 ms       /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage

Since we are allowed to use "stale" quota our usage is effectively bounded by
the rate of input into the global pool and performance is relatively stable.

with quota generations [1s increments]:

 119.58 ms       /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage
 119.65 ms       /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage
 119.64 ms       /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage
 119.63 ms       /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage
 119.60 ms       /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage

The large deficit here is due to quota generations (/intentionally/) preventing
us from now using previously stranded slack quota.  The cost is that this quota
becomes unavailable.

with quota generations and quota return:

 200.09 ms       /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage
 200.09 ms       /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage
 198.09 ms       /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage
 200.09 ms       /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage
 200.06 ms       /cgroup/a/cpuacct.usage

By returning unused quota we're able to both stably consume our desired quota
and prevent unintentional overages due to the abuse of slack quota from
previous quota periods (especially on a large machine).
