Subject: [PATCH] cpuset: Update the cpuset flag file from old name from new
	name correctly.


Dear Jiri Kosina, 

This is a trivial patch for cpuset feature. 
Current document file for cpuset is still not updated. 
So, I made this patch that updated cpusets.txt based on linux-2.6.33-rc8.

Regards,
Geunsik Lim.

Subject: [PATCH] cpuset: Update the cpuset flag file from old name from new name.

This patch is for modifying with correct cuset flag file.
We need to update current manual for cpuset.
For example,
before) cpus, cpu_exclusive, mems
after ) cpuset.cpus, cpuset.cpu_exclusive, cpuset.mems
