There is a case where the first for_each_sched_entity loop exits due to on_rq, having incompletely updated the list. In this case the second for_each_sched_entity loop can further modify se. The later code to fix up the list management fails to do what is needed because se does not point to the sched_entity which broke out of the first loop. The list is not fixed up because the throttled parent was already added back to the list by a task enqueue in a parallel child hierarchy. Address this by calling list_add_leaf_cfs_rq if there are throttled parents while doing the second for_each_sched_entity loop.
