 * cpuset_sem should be held by anyone who is depending on the children

 * on the flags or *_allowed values of a cpuset, such as raising the
 * CS_REMOVED flag bit iff it is not already raised, or reading and
 * conditionally modifying the *_allowed values.  One kernel global
 * cpuset semaphore should be sufficient - these things don't change
 * that much.
 *
 * The code that modifies cpusets holds cpuset_sem across the entire
 * operation, from cpuset_common_file_write() down, single threading
 * all cpuset modifications (except for counter manipulations from
 * fork and exit) across the system.  This presumes that cpuset
 * modifications are rare - better kept simple and safe, even if slow.
 *
 * The code that reads cpusets, such as in cpuset_common_file_read()
 * and below, only holds cpuset_sem across small pieces of code, such
 * as when reading out possibly multi-word cpumasks and nodemasks, as
 * the risks are less, and the desire for performance a little greater.
 * The proc_cpuset_show() routine needs to hold cpuset_sem to insure
 * that no cs->dentry is NULL, as it walks up the cpuset tree to root.
 *
 * The hooks from fork and exit, cpuset_fork() and cpuset_exit(), don't
 * (usually) grab cpuset_sem.  These are the two most performance
 * critical pieces of code here.  The exception occurs on exit(),
 * when a task in a notify_on_release cpuset exits.  Then cpuset_sem
 * is taken, and if the cpuset count is zero, a usermode call made
 * to /sbin/cpuset_release_agent with the name of the cpuset (path
 * relative to the root of cpuset file system) as the argument.
 *
 * A cpuset can only be deleted if both its 'count' of using tasks is
 * zero, and its list of 'children' cpusets is empty.  Since all tasks
 * in the system use _some_ cpuset, and since there is always at least
 * one task in the system (init, pid == 1), therefore, top_cpuset
 * always has either children cpusets and/or using tasks.  So no need
 * for any special hack to ensure that top_cpuset cannot be deleted.
