I have a (more ambitious) patch for this in my queue, which weans it off this
entirely:
Subject: cpumask: avoid playing with cpus_allowed in powernow-k8.c
From: Rusty Russell <rusty@...tcorp.com.au>
It's generally a very bad idea to mug some process's cpumask: it could
legitimately and reasonably be changed by root, which could break us
(if done before our code) or them (if we restore the wrong value).
I use work_on_cpu, which is slightly less efficient than the old code,
but the code is complex enough that using smp_call_function_single()
is not trivial.
