It seems confusing if there're two interaces but they actually mean
the same thing.

Another reason I didn't do this is, they're not always the same. When
!sane, If cpus_allowed is empty, effective_cpus is not empty, and you
are not able to put tasks into this cpuset. So if we want to expose
it unconditionally, I'll make sure cpus_allowed == effective_cpus
always stand when !sane.
