dth hierarchies. Validate that: max(child bandwidth) <= parent_bandwidth In a quota limited hierarchy, an unconstrained entity (e.g. bandwidth==RUNTIME_INF) inherits the bandwidth of its parent. This constraint is chosen over sum(child_bandwidth) as notion of over-commit is valuable within SCHED_OTHER. Some basic code from the RT case is re-factored for reuse.
