When doing load balance and the target cfs_rq is in throttled hierarchy, whether to allow balancing there is a question. The good side to allow balancing is: if the target CPU is idle or less loaded and the being balanced task is holding some kernel resources, then it seems a good idea to balance the task there and let the task get the CPU earlier and release kernel resources sooner. The bad part is, if the task is not holding any kernel resources, then the balance seems not that useful. While theoretically it's debatable, a performance test[0] which involves 200 cgroups and each cgroup runs hackbench(20 sender, 20 receiver) in pipe mode showed a performance degradation on AMD Genoa when allowing load balance to throttled cfs_rq. Analysis[1] showed hackbench doesn't like task migration across LLC boundary. For this reason, add a check in can_migrate_task() to forbid balancing to a cfs_rq that is in throttled hierarchy. This reduced task migration a lot and performance restored.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
