It should cover:

(1) Preventing CPU hp when DL detects a possible overflow w/o the CPU:

sched_cpu_deactivate() -> cpuset_cpu_inactive() -> dl_cpu_busy() ->
dl_bw_cpus() [now replaced by dl_bw_capacity()].

(2) DL Admission Control in CPU HP:

__sched_setscheduler() -> sched_dl_overflow() -> dl_bw_cpus()
[now + -> dl_bw_capacity()]

(3) In create/destroy exclusive cpusets scenarios (comment in
set_cpus_allowed_dl(), although I wasn't able to provoke this so
far:

do_set_cpus_allowed() -> p->sched_class->set_cpus_allowed() was
never called when I ran a DL testcase and create/destroy exclusive
cpusets at the same time?
