sched: Fix rt_rq runtime leakage bug
This patch is to fix the real-time scheduler bug reported at: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/26/13 That is, when running multiple real-time threads on every logical CPUs and then turning off one CPU, the kernel will bug at function __disable_runtime(). Function __disable_runtime() bugs and reports leakage of rt_rq runtime. The root cause is __disable_runtime() assumes it iterates through all the existing rt_rq's while walking rq->leaf_rt_rq_list, which actually contains only runnable rt_rq's. This problem also applies to __enable_runtime() and print_rt_stats(). The patch is based on above analysis, appears to fix the problem, but is only lightly tested. Reported-by: Paul E.
