I think discussion happened before I started maintaining the patchset, but I'm
quite sure this would be helpful for bandwidth reclaiming mechanisms.
Basically, if I'm able to report that I didn't use all the budget of my current
instance, I could donate that remaining budget to other task instances.
Bandwidth reclaiming is another nice thing to have, and we actually have some
ideas on how to implement it (TODO list always grows :)).
I'll amend the comment saying that this function is of little use now, but will
be helpful in the future.
Thanks,
