OK, just before I went to play in my giant hamster wheel it hit me.
When dequeue_task() 'fails' and sets sched_delayed, we'll have done
uclamp_rq_dec().
Then, since the delayed task is still on the rq -- per the failure -- it
can be migrated, this will again do dequeue_task() which will *agian* do
a uclamp_rq_dec().
So now we have a double dequeue -- *FAIL*.
Worse, the migration will then do an enqueue_task() on the new rq
causing uclamp_rq_inc(). If you then get a ttwu() / ENQUEUE_DELAYED, you
can tickle yet another uclamp_rq_inc() for another fail.
Something like the below avoids uclamp_rq_{inc,dec}() when
->sched_delayed, and moves it post class->enqueue_task() such that for
the ENQUEUE_DELAYED case, we *will* do the inc after ->sched_delayed
gets cleared.
Hmm?
