I am also confirming this issue gilles reported.

Although, i have a question:
When we enable group scheduling (CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED),
all the problems disappear.
After skimming through the rt scheduler code, I don't feel group
scheduling alters the behavior of push/pull strategies in any way.

So I am wonder whether enabling group scheduling
actually solves the problem or just makes it tough
to recreate?
