That note comes from the previous review cycle and it's based on a request from Tejun to align uclamp behaviors with the way the delegation model is supposed to work.
I guess this part of the documentation: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.html?highlight=protections#resource-distribution-models should already cover the expected uclamp min/max behaviors.
However, I guess "repetita iuvant" in this case. I'll call this out explicitly in the description of cpu.uclamp.min.

IMO)
Did not checked but I think the compiler will figure out it can still use a single pointer for both assignments. I'll let's the compiler to its job and add in a dedicated stack var for the parent pointer.

You right, the synchronization is introduced by a later patch:
sched/core: uclamp: Update CPU's refcount on TG's clamp changes
