Subject[PATCH v2 2/6] cgroup/cpuset: Clarify the use of invalid partition root
Date
For cpuset partition, the special state of PRS_ERROR (invalid partition
root) was originally designed to handle hotplug events. In this state,
CPUs allocated to the partition root is released back to the parent
but the cpuset flags remain unchanged. However, certain manipulation
of cpuset control files could also cause a partition root to become
invalid though that was not the original intention.

Additional checks are now added to make sure that regular cpuset control
file manipulations are not allowed to make a partition root invalid. These
additional checks are:
1) A partition root can't be changed to member if it has child partition
roots.
2) Removing CPUs from cpuset.cpus that causes it to become invalid is
not allowed.

Comments are also added to clarify that a partition root becomes
invalid only when an external event like hotplug that causes all the
CPUs allocated to a partition root to become unavailable.
