Subject: Re: [PATCH] sched: Reset bandwith on task when switching from SCHED_DEADLINE
 away

Hi Daniel,

thanks a lot for your patch. I'd actually have a slightly different fix
for the same problem. I'm actually baking a small patchset that I should
be able to release in the next few days. I'd say we could wait for that
to happen and then discuss which approach is better, ok?

Thanks again,

- Juri
