I suppose your reasoning goes like: tsk->cpus_allowed is protected by
->pi_lock, we hold this, therefore it cannot change and
find_idlest_group() dtrt?

We can then state that this is due to adding proper serialization to
tsk->cpus_allowed.

Sounds plausible, but I'm not convinced, do we have hard serialization
against hotplug?
