Re: [git] CFS-devel, group scheduler, fixes

Hi,

I haven't chased down the exact scenario, but using a min_vruntime which
is about to change definitely seems to be what's causing my latency
woes.  Does the below cure your fairness woes as well?

(first bit is just some debug format changes for your convenience if you
try it)
