Mayhaps even a comment for the extra condition.

If you don't mind squashing this in:

I'm not adamant about the extra comment, but the WARN_ON would be nice IMO.


@Ben, do you reckon we want to strap

Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org>
Fixes: ec12cb7f31e2 ("sched: Accumulate per-cfs_rq cpu usage and charge against bandwidth")

to the thing? AFAICT the pick_next_task_fair() + idle_balance() dance you
described should still be possible on that commit.


Other than that,
