Subject: [PATCH 04/43] sched: implement __set_cpus_allowed()
set_cpus_allowed_ptr() modifies the allowed cpu mask of a task. The
function performs the following checks before applying new mask.
* Check whether PF_THREAD_BOUND is set. This is set for bound
kthreads so that they can't be moved around.
* Check whether the target cpu is still marked active - cpu_active().
Active state is cleared early while downing a cpu.
This patch adds __set_cpus_allowed() which takes @force parameter
which when true makes __set_cpus_allowed() ignore PF_THREAD_BOUND and
use cpu online state instead of active state for the latter. This
allows migrating tasks to CPUs as long as they are online.
set_cpus_allowed_ptr() is implemented as inline wrapper around
__set_cpus_allowed().
Due to the way migration is implemented, the @force parameter needs to
be passed over to the migration thread. @force parameter is added to
struct migration_req and passed to __migrate_task().
Please note the naming discrepancy between set_cpus_allowed_ptr() and
the new functions. The _ptr suffix is from the days when cpumask API
wasn't mature and future changes should drop it from
set_cpus_allowed_ptr() too.
NOTE: It would be nice to implement kthread_bind() in terms of
__set_cpus_allowed() if we can drop the capability to bind to a
dead CPU from kthread_bind(), which doesn't seem too popular
anyway. With such change, we'll have set_cpus_allowed_ptr() for
regular tasks and kthread_bind() for kthreads and can use
PF_THREAD_BOUND instead of passing @force parameter around.
