If this is strictly about tasks coming into SCHED_DEADLINE there are a
number of alternative options:

 - there are the sched_class::switch{ing,ed}_to() callbacks;
 - there is (the fairly recent) ENQUEUE_CLASS.

Anyway, let me break up this one patch into individual bits and write
changelogs. I'll stick them in queue/sched/urgent for now; hopefully
Pierre can given them a spin and report back if it all sorts his
problem).
