Subject: [PATCH v5 0/3] sched/fair: Burstable CFS bandwidth controller

Changelog:
v5:
- Rearrange into 3 patches, one less than the previous version.
- The interference to other groups are valued.
- Put a limit on burst, so that code is further simplified.
- Rebase upon v5.13-rc3.

v4:
- Adjust assignments in tg_set_cfs_bandwidth(), saving unnecessary
  assignemnts when quota == RUNTIME_INF.
- Getting rid of sysctl_sched_cfs_bw_burst_onset_percent, as there seems
  no justification for both controlling start bandwidth and a percent
  way.
- Comment improvement in sched_cfs_period_timer() shifts on explaining
  why max_overrun shifting to 0 is a problem.
- Rename previous_runtime to runtime_at_period_start.
- Add cgroup2 interface and documentation.
- Getting rid of exposing current_bw as there are not enough
  justification and the updating problem.
- Add justification on cpu.stat change in the changelog.
- Rebase upon v5.12-rc3.
- Correct SoB chain.
- Several indentation fixes.
- Adjust quota in schbench test from 700000 to 600000.

Previously, Cong Wang and Konstantin Khlebnikov proposed similar
feature:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/157476581065.5793.4518979877345136813.stgit@buzz/

This time we present more latency statistics and handle overflow while
accumulating.

Huaixin Chang (3):
  sched/fair: Introduce the burstable CFS controller
  sched/fair: Add cfs bandwidth burst statistics
  sched/fair: Add document for burstable CFS bandwidth
