Subject: [PATCH] sched/core: fix incorrect parameter burst in cpu_max_write()

In the cgroup v2 cpu subsystem, assuming we have a
cgroup named test, we set cpu.max and cpu.max.burst:
    # echo 1000000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max
    # echo 1000000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max.burst
then we check cpu.max and cpu.max.burst:
    # cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max
    1000000 100000
    # cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max.burst
    1000000

Next we set cpu.max again and check cpu.max and
cpu.max.burst:
    # echo 2000000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max
    # cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max
    2000000 100000
    # cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max.burst
    1000
we found that the cpu.max.burst value changed unexpectedly.

In cpu_max_write(), the unit of the burst value returned
by tg_get_cfs_burst() is microseconds, while in cpu_max_write(),
the burst unit used for calculation should be nanoseconds,
which leads to the bug.

To fix it, we get the burst value directly from
tg->cfs_bandwidth.burst.
