Commit: 9d89c257dfb9 ("sched/fair: Rewrite runnable load and utilization average tracking") led to an overly small weight for interactive group entities. The bad case can be easily reproduced when a number of CPU hogs compete for the CPUs at the same time (thanks to Mike). This is largly because the task group's load average tracking cross CPUs lags behind the real changes. To fix this we accelerate the group share distribution process by using the load.weight of the cfs_rq. This may increase the entire group's share, but we have to do so to protect the (fragile) interactive tasks, especially from CPU hogs.
