nit.

This checks seems unnecessary (to my untrained eye). Any harm in
skipping it and simply doing a wake_up_q() followed by wake_q_init()
unconditionally?

I'm trying to understand this - we enter task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() with
"wait_lock" held (I believe the lockdep_assert_held() in the previous
hunk checks for the same). I walked down the call chain (although
briefly) and could only spot "task->pi_lock" being locked and unlocked
before this call to "wake_up_q()" but the "wait_lock" seems to be held
throughout, only being unlocked and locked again for
"rt_mutex_adjust_prio_chain()" later down.

Did I miss something or is disabling preemption for this specific hunk
enough to enable safe nesting?
