    Yes, that's one reason, the other one being to properly support
    CGroup when we add them in the following patches.

    Effective will always track the value/bucket in which the task has
    been refcounted at enqueue time and it depends on the aggregated
    value.

    Would say that can be enough if we decide to ditch the mapping and use
    a linear mapping. In that case the value will always be enough to find
    in which bucket a task has been accounted.

    Right... if I ditch the mapping that should work.

    That's true, but that's also an expensive operation, that's why now
    I'm doing only lazy updates at next enqueue time.

    Do you think that could be acceptable?

    Perhaps I can sanity check all the CPU to ensure that they all have a
    current clamp value within the new enforced range. This kind-of
    anticipate the idea to have an in-kernel API which has higher priority
    and allows to set clamp values across all the CPUs...
