I also tested it on a desktop bare metal with 800 cgroups under 2
cgroups that have quota set. Before this patch, the majority of durations
for sched_cfs_period_timer() are in the range of 512us-1ms, with outliers
in the range of 1ms-4ms; after this patch, the majority are in the range
of 128us-512us with no outliers above 512us.
