From 2636ed5f8d15ff9395731593537b4b3fdf2af24d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Mon, 9 Feb 2015 12:23:20 +0100 Subject: sched/rt: Avoid obvious configuration fail Setting the root group's cpu.rt_runtime_us to 0 is a bad thing; it would disallow the kernel creating RT tasks. One can of course still set it to 1, which will (likely) still wreck your kernel, but at least make it clear that setting it to 0 is not good. Collect both sanity checks into the one place while we're there.
