This hurts. We need the rq-locks whenever we change the weight of the per-cpu group sched entities. To allevate this a little, only change the weight when the new weight is at least shares_thresh away from the old value. This avoids the rq-lock for the top level entries, since those will never be re-weighted, and fuzzes the lower level entries a little to gain performance in semi-stable situations.
