This patch touches RT group scheduling case.

Functions inc_rt_prio_smp() and dec_rt_prio_smp() change (global) rq's priority,
while rt_rq passed to them may be not the top-level rt_rq. This is wrong, because
changing of priority on a child level does not guarantee that the priority is
the highest all over the rq. So, this leak makes RT balancing unusable.

The short example: the task having the highest priority among all rq's RT tasks
(no one other task has the same priority) are waking on a throttle rt_rq.
The rq's cpupri is set to the task's priority equivalent, but real
rq->rt.highest_prio.curr is less.

The patch below fixes the problem.

It looks like all version have this bug, so I CC'ed stable mailing list.

Yeah, I think this is right.

cpupri stuff should indeed only be changed for the top level group.

Ingo, are you going to apply this patch? Or will you give any comments?

I queued it, Ingo should get it through me somewhere today if all things
go well.
