Subject: [PATCH] sched/rt:fix the missing of rt_rq runtime check in rt-period timer

From: Hailong Liu <liu.hailong6@....com.cn>

The rq->rd->span of a cpu in a system with isolated cpus splited into two
different parts: one is for isolated cpus, another for non-isolated cpus.

When CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED enabled, the handler of sched_rt_period_timer
updates rt_time and rt_runtime for every cpus in rq(this_cpu)->rd->span.

It means that other parts cpus out of this_cpu's rd->span will be missed
by sched_rt_period_timer handler, when CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED enabled and
isolated cpus presents in system.

E.g problem will be triggered as follows on my 8 cores machine:
1 enable  CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED=y, and boot kernel with command-line
  "isolcpus=4-7"
2 create a child group and init it:
  mount -t cgroup -o cpu cpu /sys/fs/cgruop
  mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/child0
  echo 950000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/child0/cpu.rt_runtime_us
3 run two rt-loop tasks, assume their pids are $pid1 and $pid2
4 affinity a rt task to the isolated cpu-sets
  taskset -p 0xf0 $pid2
5 add tasks created above into child cpu-group
  echo $pid1 > /sys/fs/cgroup/child0/tasks
  echo $pid2 > /sys/fs/cgroup/child0/tasks
6 check wat happened:
  "top": one of the task will fail to has cpu usage, but its stat is "R"
  "kill": the task on the problem rt_rq can't be killed

This patch will fix this problem.
