I just found that the "return false" outside of the while loop is never
executed which may be not reached by code coverage test. Of course,
we can simply remove this "return false", but I found a similar function
throtl_hierarchy_can_upgrade which has no such problem. So I avoid
unreachable code as throtl_hierarchy_can_upgrade do.
Is this make sense to you? If not, I will remove this patch in next
version.

Thanks.
