Subject: [RFC 5/5] sched: add cpusets to comounts list

Although we have not yet identified any place where cpusets could be
improved performance-wise by guaranteeing comounts with the other two
cpu cgroups, it is a sane choice to mount them together.

We can preemptively benefit from it and avoid a growing mess, by
guaranteeing that subsystems that mostly contraint the same kind of
resource will live together. With cgroups is never that simple, and
things crosses boundaries quite often. But I hope this can be seen as a
potential improvement.
