So basically you want to do:

+check_push:
+ if (weight > 1 &&
+ !task_running(rq, p) &&
+ !test_tsk_need_resched(rq->curr) &&
+ !cpumask_subset(new_mask, &p->cpus_allowed)) {
+ /* Update new affinity and try to push. */
+ cpumask_copy(&p->cpus_allowed, new_mask);
+ p->nr_cpus_allowed = weight;
+ push_rt_tasks(rq);
+ return true;
+ }

in set_cpus_allowed_rt(), which would not work because of us calling
put_prev_task(), which does enqueue_pushable_task() and would allow
pick_next_pushable_task() to select the current task, which would then
BUG_ON().

Note however that you already test for !task_running(), which precludes
that entire argument, because if @p is not running, we did not call
put_prev_task() etc..

So I think the above would still work; albeit it needs a comment on why
etc..
