This process was moved to RT-priority queue when global oom-killer
happened to boost the recovery of the system..
Who did that? oom killer doesn't boost the priority (scheduling class)
AFAIK.

but it wasn't get properily dealt with. I still have no idea why where
the problem is ..
Well your configuration says that there is no runtime reserved for the
group.
Please refer to Documentation/scheduler/sched-rt-group.txt for more
information.

maybe this is not a upstream-kernel bug. the centos/redhat kernel
would boost the process to RT prio when the process was selected
by oom-killer.
This still looks like your cpu controller is misconfigured. Even if the
task is promoted to be realtime.
