4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Xunlei Pang <xlp...@redhat.com> commit ae83b56a56f8d9643dedbee86b457fa1c5d42f59 upstream. When a contrained task is throttled by dl_check_constrained_dl(), it may carry the remaining positive runtime, as a result when dl_task_timer() fires and calls replenish_dl_entity(), it will not be replenished correctly due to the positive dl_se->runtime. This patch assigns its runtime to 0 if positive after throttling.
