Vincent is trying to play with rt_avg (in the last sched-freq thread) to
see if we can get some information about RT as well. I understand that
from a theoretical perspective that's not much we can say of such tasks,
and bumping to max can be the only sensible thing to do, but there are
users of RT (ehm, Android) that will probably see differences in energy
consumption if we do so. Yeah, maybe the should use a different policy,
yes.

I think we could do better than this once Luca's reclaiming stuff gets
in. The reserved bw is usually somewhat pessimistic. But this is a
different discussion, maybe.
