sched/fair: Scale bandwidth quota and period without losing quota/period ratio precision
The quota/period ratio is used to ensure a child task group won't get
more bandwidth than the parent task group, and is calculated as:
normalized_cfs_quota() = [(quota_us << 20) / period_us]
If the quota/period ratio was changed during this scaling due to
precision loss, it will cause inconsistency between parent and child
task groups.
See below example:
A userspace container manager (kubelet) does three operations:
1) Create a parent cgroup, set quota to 1,000us and period to 10,000us.
2) Create a few children cgroups.
3) Set quota to 1,000us and period to 10,000us on a child cgroup.
These operations are expected to succeed. However, if the scaling of
147/128 happens before step 3, quota and period of the parent cgroup
will be changed:
new_quota: 1148437ns, 1148us
new_period: 11484375ns, 11484us
And when step 3 comes in, the ratio of the child cgroup will be
104857, which will be larger than the parent cgroup ratio (104821),
and will fail.
Scaling them by a factor of 2 will fix the problem.
