Race happens when cfs_b->runtime is read, distributes without holding lock and finds out there is not enough runtime to charge against after distribution. Because assign_cfs_rq_runtime() might be called during distribution, and use cfs_b->runtime at the same time. Fibtest is the tool to test this race. Assume all gcfs_rq is throttled and cfs period timer runs, slow threads might run and sleep, returning unused cfs_rq runtime and keeping min_cfs_rq_runtime in their local pool. If all this happens sufficiently quickly, cfs_b->runtime will drop a lot. If runtime distributed is large too, over-use of runtime happens. A runtime over-using by about 70 percent of quota is seen when we test fibtest on a 96-core machine. We run fibtest with 1 fast thread and 95 slow threads in test group, configure 10ms quota for this group and see the CPU usage of fibtest is 17.0%, which is far more than the expected 10%. On a smaller machine with 32 cores, we also run fibtest with 96 threads. CPU usage is more than 12%, which is also more than expected 10%. This shows that on similar workloads, this race do affect CPU bandwidth control. Solve this by holding lock inside distribute_cfs_runtime().
