Request to backport 4929a4e6faa0 to stable tree

Hi Stable kernel maintainers,

I want to backport below patch to stable tree:
4929a4e6faa0 sched/fair: Scale bandwidth quota and period without
losing quota/period ratio precision

This Email is to follow the option 2 [1] to submit patches to stable kernel.

This patch is fixing a real bug affecting Kubernetes users [2].
The bug (2e8e19226398 sched/fair: Limit sched_cfs_period_timer() loop
to avoid hard lockup) was backported to all stable versions. So we
need this fix to be backported to all stable versions as well.

Thanks!
Xuewei
