I think 'cfs_b->lock' contention would go up significantly when reducing
sysctl_sched_cfs_bandwidth_slice, while for something like 'balancing' lock
(taken with SD_SERIALIZE set and more frequently when tuning down
max_interval?), yes it may increase idle time! Did you have any other
lock in mind when speaking of inversion?
