The last time we went through this, it was left after Andrew had fixed it 
up when the cpusets version was merged in -mm without any disagreement 
from Peter who was cc'd and that version was acked both by myself and Paul 
Menage at https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/12/14/402.  Andrew dropped it and 
asked for a repost since there was some on-going scheduler work going on 
in linux-next that caused that version not to apply.  No follow-up was 
ever offered.

Why have we now gone in a completely different direction again?
