Hi, TJ
After long time(again) thought.
I think this patchset has this problem: the work may be running on wrong CPU when there is online cpu in its wq's cpumask.
example: node0(cpu0,cpu1),node1(cpu2,cpu3), wq's cpumask: 1,3 the pwq of this wq on the node1's cpumask: 3 current online cpu: 0-2. so the cpumask of worker tasks of the pwq on node1 is actually cpu_all_mask. so the work scheduled from cpu2 can be executed on cpu0 or cpu2. we expect it is executed on cpu1 only.
It can be fixed by swapping pwqs(node's pwq <-> default pwq) when cpuhotplug. But could you reschedule this patchset to wq/for-3.11? the whole patchset is more complicated than my brain.
If you agree, I will rebase my patches again.
Thanks, Lai
