Subject: [PATCH v3 05/12] cpuset: use effective cpumask to build sched domains

We're going to have separate user-configured masks and effective ones.

Eventually configured masks can only be changed by writing cpuset.cpus
and cpuset.mems, and they won't be restricted by parent cpuset. While
effective masks reflect cpu/memory hotplug and hierachical restriction,
and these are the real masks that apply to the tasks in the cpuset.

We calculate effective mask this way:
  - top cpuset's effective_mask == online_mask, otherwise
  - cpuset's effective_mask == configured_mask & parent effective_mask,
    if the result is empty, it inherits parent effective mask.

Those behavior changes are for default hierarchy only. For legacy
hierarchy, effective_mask and configured_mask are the same, so we won't
break old interfaces.

We should partition sched domains according to effective_cpus, which
is the real cpulist that takes effects on tasks in the cpuset.

This won't introduce behavior change.

v2:
- Add a comment for the call of rebuild_sched_domains(), suggested
by Tejun.
