Hi Chen,
Tested this patch on POWER11 system
Without the patch:
echo 940000 > /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_runtime_us
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
With patch:
echo 940000 > /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_runtime_us
cat /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_runtime_us
940000
Works as expected.

Thanks,
Vineeth
