mainlining shenanigans

>From a cpuset point of view, a scheduling partition is a group of cpusets with their own set of exclusive CPUs that are not shared by other tasks outside the scheduling partition. In the legacy hierarchy, scheduling partitions are supported indirectly via the right use of the load balancing and the exclusive CPUs flag which is not intuitive and can be hard to use. To fully support the concept of scheduling partitions in the default hierarchy, we need to add some new field into the cpuset structure as well as a new tmpmasks structure that is used to pre-allocate cpumasks at the top level cpuset functions to avoid memory allocation in inner functions as memory allocation failure in those inner functions may cause a cpuset to have inconsistent states.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
