so renorm is false in enqueue_entity(), why you mentioned that the
cfs_rq->min_vruntime is still added to the se->vruntime in
enqueue_task_fair()?

Maybe this is a misunderstanding on my side but didn't you asked me to
'... Could you point out when the fair rq's min_vruntime is added to the
task's vruntime in your *later* scenario? ...'

Yeah, if the calltrace above and my analysis is correct, then the fair
rq's min_vruntime will not be added to the task's vruntime in your
*later* scenario, which means that your patch is not necessary.

In the scenario I observed, the task is not waking - it is running and being deboosted from priority inheritance, transitioning from RT to CFS.

Dietmar and I both were able to reproduce the issue with the testcase I posted earlier in this thread.

Correct, and with the same testcase I got this call stack in this scenario:
