[PATCH 3/4] cpuset: Add function to introduce CPUs to cpusets duringCPU online

From: Srivatsa S. Bhat
Date: Tue Feb 07 2012 - 13:57:47 EST


During a CPU online operation, at present, that CPU is added only to
top_cpuset.cpus_allowed, but not to any of the other cpusets, which
is a mistake.

So, add a function to go through all the cpusets and add this CPU to
each cpuset which contained this CPU previously. In other words, add this
CPU to those cpusets, whose cpus_allowed_before_hotplug mask contains
this CPU.

Note that this function should not modify cpus_allowed_before_hotplug.
Hence, we move that particular piece of code from do_update_cpumask()
to update_cpumask().
