rq->curr task can't be in "dequeued" state in prio_changed_dl().
(The only place we can have that is __schedule()). So, we delete
rq->curr check.
the CBS timer can throttle it right?
Yeah, it's better to check for on_dl_rq():

[PATCH]sched/dl: Cleanup prio_changed_dl()
rq->curr task can't be in "dequeued" state in prio_changed_dl().
(The only place we can have that is __schedule()). So, we delete
rq->curr check.

We shouldn't do balancing if deadline task is throttled too.

Also delete "else" branch which is dead code (switched_to_dl()
is not interested in dequeued tasks and we are not interested
in balancing in this case).

So, I agree that calling switched_to_dl() makes little sense,
but don't we have to deal with updates to not running tasks as
in rt.c? Something like this maybe?

I'm not sure if this should be task_on_rq_queued() check. All check_class_changed() callsites dequeue entity if task_on_rq_queued() is true which leads to on_dl_rq(&p->dl) always return false.
