Pretty much, yes. I can't think of a good reason why we need the
utilization of groups as long as we have the task utilization and the
sum of those for the root cfs_rq.

I'm not saying it can't be implemented, just saying that it will make
utilization tracking for groups redundant and possibly duplicate or hack
some the existing code to implement the new root utilization sum.
