Revert "sched: Update_cfs_shares at period edge"
This reverts commit f269ae0469fc882332bdfb5db15d3c1315fe2a10. It turns out it causes a very noticeable interactivity regression with CONFIG_SCHED_AUTOGROUP (test-case: "make -j32" of the kernel in a terminal window, while scrolling in a browser - the autogrouping means that the two end up in separate cgroups, and the browser should be smooth as silk despite the high load). Says Paul Turner: "It seems that the update-throttling on the wake-side is reducing the interactive tasks' ability to preempt. While I suspect the right longer term answer here is force these updates only in the cross-cgroup case; this is less trivial. For this release I believe the right answer is either going to be a revert or restore the updates on the enqueue-side."
