Subject: [PATCH v3 0/3] cgroup, docs: cpu controller interaction with
 various scheduling policies

The cgroup v2 cpu controller interface files interact with processes
differently based on their scheduling policy and the underlying
scheduler used (fair-class vs. BPF scheduler). This patchset
documents these differences.
