Argh, ok I see, distribute_cfs_runtime() wants that. Dropping rq->lock
is very fragile esp from the put path, you can only do that _before_ the
put path updates rq->curr etc.. So I'd rather you didn't, just keep the
timer crap and add some comments there.
And we need that distribute_cfs_runtime() muck because that's what
unthrottles rqs when more runtime is available.. bah.
