Was it for init or run-time functions?  We try to maintain the empty
def style for most of our run-time functions (e.g. cfs_throttled); for
init it seems more descriptive (and in keeping with the rest of sched
init) to ifdef specific initialization.

Regardless,  I will definitely give this a pass-over to see what I can clean up.

The idea isn't to synchronize quota updates for all groups, but to
synchronize it within a single group.  Consider the case of 2 parallel
writes, one setting infinite bandwidth the other setting finite.
Depending on rq->lock contention it's possible for both values to
propagate to some of the cpus.

You sit on the bandwidth lock because then there is inversion with
update_curr, e.g.

cpu1 -> rq->lock held, update_curr -> request bandwidth -> acquire
cfs_bandwidth.lock
cpu2 -> tg_set_cfs_bandwidth, hold cfs_bandwidth -> try to acquire cpu1 rq->lock

This mutex could be per-cgroup but users shouldn't be updating fast
enough to the point where they require it, it also reduces rq->lock
slamming when users update several cgroups in parallel.

woops this should be below the mutex_lock, fixed thanks!
