I tested tip (v2.6.31-rc9-1357-ge6a3cd0) with a little perturbation
measurement proglet on an isolated Q6600 core.

10s measurement interval results:

sched_rt_runtime_us  RT utilization
950000               94.99%
750000               75.00%
500000               50.04%
250000               25.02%
 50000                5.03%

Seems to work fine here.
