cpuset: update cs->effective_{cpus, mems} when config changes
We're going to have separate user-configured masks and effective ones. Eventually configured masks can only be changed by writing cpuset.cpus and cpuset.mems, and they won't be restricted by parent cpuset. While effective masks reflect cpu/memory hotplug and hierachical restriction, and these are the real masks that apply to the tasks in the cpuset. We calculate effective mask this way: - top cpuset's effective_mask == online_mask, otherwise - cpuset's effective_mask == configured_mask & parent effective_mask, if the result is empty, it inherits parent effective mask. Those behavior changes are for default hierarchy only. For legacy hierarchy, effective_mask and configured_mask are the same, so we won't break old interfaces. To make cs->effective_{cpus,mems} to be effective masks, we need to - update the effective masks at hotplug - update the effective masks at config change - take on ancestor's mask when the effective mask is empty The second item is done here. We don't need to treat root_cs specially in update_cpumasks_hier(). This won't introduce behavior change. v3: - add a WARN_ON() to check if effective masks are the same with configured masks on legacy hierarchy. - pass trialcs->cpus_allowed to update_cpumasks_hier() and add a comment for it. Similar change for update_nodemasks_hier(). Suggested by Tejun. v2: - revise the comment in update_{cpu,node}masks_hier(), suggested by Tejun. - fix to use @cp instead of @cs in these two functions.
