I spoke too fast. You will a variant of my one-liner fix
when you backport the 4.11.12-r16 patch:

rt-Increase-decrease-the-nr-of-migratory-tasks-when-.patch

to 4.9-rt and 4.4-rt. The fix of interest is the introduction of

p->nr_cpus_allowed = cpumask_weight(&p->cpus_mask);

to migrate_enable_update_cpus_allowed().

Joe
