How is your kernel configured wrt CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED?
it is unset

Is that still true?
That depends :-)

Yet, checking /proc/(pid)/cgroup states these processes are not in a root
cgroup, yet the cpu controller is enabled on the root cgroup
(/sys/fs/cgroup/cgroup.subtree_control lists "cpu" as one of the controllers
and I see the interface files in children).

Can anyone explain the situation?
With v2 and CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED there's no way how to assign realtime
budgets to cgroups and therefore realtime tasks cannot run in them.

With !CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED, there's (internally) only the root cgroup
for realtime tasks and things apparently work.

See also [1].
this note pointed to in the readme is quite cgroups v1 specific, I believe what it describes was true in v1, and v2 does not have any capability to control realtime processes in non root cgroups if I read correctly.

<snip>
The cgroupsv2 documentation states that cgroup cpu controller
currently does not support realtime processes, so to enable it all
realtime processes must be moved to root cgroup.
Will you send a docs patch with the CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED reservation?
:-p

HTH,
Michal
