What I mean with the below comment is, when this isn't enough, try
something like:

	if (se == cfs_rq->next)
		ideal_runtime /= 2;

to make it yield sooner to 'next' buddies. Sadly, due to the whole
cgroup mess, we can't say what actual task is on the end of it (without
doing a full hierarchy pick, which is more expensive still).
