isn't this too complicated?

Can't we simply queue throttled tasks in rq_offline_dl() (without clearing
of dl_throttled() status)? migrate_tasks() will do the migration right.

This case the patch from the topic may be simply transformed in:

diff --git a/kernel/sched/deadline.c b/kernel/sched/deadline.c

         */
        if (!dl_task(p) || dl_se->dl_new ||
-           dl_se->dl_boosted || !dl_se->dl_throttled)
+           dl_se->dl_boosted || !dl_se->dl_throttled || on_dl_rq(dl_se))
                goto unlock;
 
        sched_clock_tick();
