Yep, that's broken.

This calls static_key_slow_dec_cpuslocked, but destroy_cfs_bandwidth
isn't holding the hotplug lock.

The other caller of cfs_bandwidth_usage_dec needs to hold it for another
reason, so what about having both cfs_bandwidth_usage_dec() and
cfs_bandwidth_usage_dec_cpuslocked()?  In that case, the _inc one could
be renamed similarly so this isn't a stumbling block later on.
