You just walk up the tree multiplying the fraction you have at each level.

We should be just worried about pos->weight > and parent->level_weight and that should determine vfaction of cfqg. Eh? Then how would it compete with the children cfqgs? You can consider it as the hidden leaf node competing with the children cfqgs, right? So, you take the leaf weight and divide it by the total active weight of all the children (including the hidden leaf node). It isn't different from the rest of the calculation. It just looks different because leaf_weight is stored elsewhere and we look down there and then walke up. The calculation being done is exactly the same one.
