I experimented with an rt-app based setup on Arm64 Juno (6 CPUs):

cgroupv1 hierarchy A/B/C, all CFS bw controlled (30,000/100,000)

I create A/B/C outside rt-app so I can have rt-app runs with an already
existing taskgroup hierarchy. There is a 4 secs gap between consecutive
rt-app runs.

The rt-app files contains 6 periodic CFS tasks (25,000/100,000) running
in /A/B/C, /A/B, /A (3 rt-app task phases).

I get w/ the patch (and the debug patch applied to unthrottle_cfs_rq()):

If I add the following snippet the issue goes away:
