Yes, you're right. No other code path I spotted except what you list below.

Yes, It is.
But *nr_running--/nr_running++* works are still redundant for
‘!entity_is_task(se)' hot path. :)
Besides, I guess we could simplify the logic and make it cleaner and
more readable with this patch.
If it could make sense to you, would you mind if I resend the patch
with the commit log amended?

Yes, indeed.

Thanks a lot for your comments.
