Peter Zijlstra 98a4826b99 sched: fix bandwidth validation for UID grouping ...

Impact: make rt-limit tunables work again

Mark Glines reported:

> I've got an issue on x86-64 where I can't configure the system to allow
> RT tasks for a non-root user.

> In 2.6.26.5, I was able to do the following to set things up nicely:

> echo 450000 >/sys/kernel/uids/1000/cpu_rt_runtime

> Seems like every value I try to echo into the /sys files returns EINVAL.

For UID grouping we initialize the root group with infinite bandwidth
which by default is actually more than the global limit, therefore the
bandwidth check always fails.

Because the root group is a phantom group (for UID grouping) we cannot
runtime adjust it, therefore we let it reflect the global bandwidth
settings.
