Subject: [RFC PATCH 3/8] bfq: keep the minimun bandwidth for be_class

From: Chunguang Xu <brookxu@...cent.com>

From: Chunguang Xu <brookxu@...cent.com>

rt_class will preempt other classes, which may cause other
classes to starve to death. At present, idle_class has
alleviated the starvation problem through the minimum
bandwidth mechanism. Similarly, we should do the same for
be_class.
