[PATCH] cpusets: fix bug of adding inexistent cpu or mem

From: Lai Jiangshan
Date: Fri May 23 2008 - 03:49:50 EST


Adding inexistent cpu to a cpuset will be omitted quietly.
It should return -EINVAL.

Example: (real_nr_cpus <= 4 < NR_CPUS or cpu#4 was just offline)

# cat cpus
0-1
# /bin/echo 4 > cpus
# /bin/echo $?
0
# cat cpus

#

The same as adding inexistent mem.
This patch will fix this bug.
And when *buf == "", the check is unneeded.
