Description

Currently in the hierarchical allocator allocation loops we compute available resources by taking into account the capabilities of the current framework. Further down in the loop we might then break out of the iteration under the assumption that no other framework can receive the resources in question.

This is only correct if all considered frameworks have identical capabilities.
