A little dry. :) This is telling the what, can you please add also the
why and how?

Should we actually be using rt_group_sched_enabled() (instead of
ifdeffery) everywhere to check if group scheduling is enabled and
differentiate behavior?

We already touched upon this and maybe we can leave it for later, but
the fact that dl_servers always preempt FIFO/RR is going to be a change
of behavior wrt legacy RT group scheduling. Legacy users might have
expectations that setting an high static priority means those tasks will
always be scheduled first and this will break that. Maybe we want to
convince them to change their assumptions, but we need to at least
cleary document the new behavior (and why it is right/better - if it is
indeed :). Not sure if we can also find a way to be "back-compatible"
and if we want to do that.

What about checking if woken_dl_se and curr_dl_se are the same dl_se?

Is this empty because intra-group migration is coming with some future
change? Even if that's the case, I believe this wants a comment
explaining why this branch is empty.

tsk argument is not going to be used anymore with this, please remove
it. Also maybe rename to something closer to what the function actually
checks for, e.g. [sched_]rt_group_has_runtime.
