Mayhaps even a comment for the extra condition.

If you don't mind squashing this in:
-----8<----- diff --git a/kernel/sched/fair.c b/kernel/sched/fair.c index b1d9cec9b1ed..b47b0bcf56bc 100644 --- a/kernel/sched/fair.c +++ b/kernel/sched/fair.c @@ -4630,6 +4630,10 @@ static u64 distribute_cfs_runtime(struct cfs_bandwidth *cfs_b, u64 remaining) if (!cfs_rq_throttled(cfs_rq)) goto next; + /* By the above check, this should never be true */ + WARN_ON(cfs_rq->runtime_remaining > 0); + + /* Pick the minimum amount to return to a positive quota state */ runtime = -cfs_rq->runtime_remaining + 1; if (runtime > remaining) runtime = remaining; ----->8----- 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,
