If you mean saving the exclusion cpumask no matter who the caller is, we
can add another exclusion cpumask to save it and expose it to sysfs.
This should be done in the first workqueue patch, not as part of this
patch. I expose this isolated cpumask for testing purpose to be checked
by the test_cpuset_prs.sh script for correctness. As said, I can expose
it without cgroup_debug if you think the information is useful in general.

Cheers,
Longman
