there's no solution for now, the latency targets are still not working 
under the group scheduler. Upstream we've made it non-default and marked 
it EXPERIMENTAL.

Peter has a new updated group scheduler queue that i'm testing right 
now, perhaps it can be pushed out to sched-devel/latest later today. But 
that is v2.6.27 material.
