We igonre checking for !se->on_rq condition before dequeue one
entity from cfs rq. It must be required in case the entity has
been dequeued.

Do you have a use case that triggers this situation ?
This is the only way to reach this situation seems to be dequeuing a
task on a throttled cfs_rq

Sorry, I have no use case triggers this situation. It's just found by
reading code.
I agree the situation you mentioned above may have a racy with
dequeue_task_fair() in the following code path:
__schedule
pick_next_task_fair
put_prev_entity
check_cfs_rq_runtime
throttle_cfs_rq
dequeue_entity
So this check is worth to be added for dequeue_task_fair().

In fact the check is already done thanks to the: if (cfs_rq_throttled(cfs_rq))
AFAICT, there is no other way to enqueue a task on a cfs_rq for which
the group entity is not enqueued

Hmm i have been too quick in my reply. I wanted to say:
AFAICT, there is no other way to dequeue a task from a cfs_rq for
which the group entity is not enqueued

But we should notice the potential racy pathes called by deactivate_task().
For example:
One path is dequeue a task from its cfs_rq called by schedule():
__schedule
deactivate_task
dequeue_task
dequeue_task_fair
Another path is trying to migrate the same task to a CPU on the preferred node:
numa_migrate_preferred
task_numa_migrate
migrate_swap
stop_two_cpus
migrate_swap_stop
__migrate_swap_task
deactivate_task
dequeue_task_fair
There could be a racy if the task is dequeued form its cfs_rq in parallel.
