So latency for cgroups does not follow any (existing) Resource
Distribution Model/Scheme (Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst)?
Latency values are only used to compare sched entities at the same level.

There is no [MIN, MAX] checking?

min_weight = sched_latency_to_weight[0] = -1024
max_weight = sched_latency_to_weight[39] = 973

[MIN, MAX] = [sysctl_sched_latency * min_weight >> NICE_LATENCY_SHIFT,
sysctl_sched_latency * max_weight >> NICE_LATENCY_SHIFT]


With the `cpu.latency` knob user would have to know for example that the
value is -24,000,000ns to get the same behaviour as for a task latency
nice = -20 (latency prio = 0) (w/ sysctl_sched_latency = 24ms)?

For `nice` we have `cpu.weight.nice` next to `cpu.weight` in cgroup v2 ?
