OK, I was a bit puzzled by the usage of largest_dl in this loop, but I
seemed to convince myself that it is right. It's basically a local tmp
variable that you use to pick left or right child at each iteration, and
you reset it to the deadline of the node your are moving (orig_dl) after
it iteration.

Nitpick, this and the above conditions break 80 columns.

Can we actually get here with IDX_INVALID? We bail out in the !is_valid
branch and the other call point is an else branch of old_idx ==
IDX_INVALID. So, it seems that this is more a BUG_ON().

You can wrap after the comma. And brackets are not required.

Couldn't spot any problem with this change (apart from the minor things
I pointed out above). Didn't test it extensively, though. But it seems
you did. :)

Best,
