Thanks, but I have one minor nit.

I would swap the order here. That is, check p->nr_cpus_allowed before
rq->rt.overloaded. The order doesn't really matter, and even though
rq->rt.overloaded is probably more likely to be 0, it is used by other
CPUs. And as a micro-optimization, I rather read something that is used
by only one CPU than to read something that may be modified by many
CPUs.
