Currently neither site uses any lock, and that is what the patch fixes
(it uses the per-task ->pi_lock instead of the rq->lock, but that is
immaterial).
What matters though is that you now must hold a scheduler lock while
setting PF_NO_SETAFFINITY. In order to avoid spreading that knowledge
around I've taught kthread_bind*() about this and made the workqueue
code use that API (rather than having the workqueue code take scheduler
locks).
Hmm.. a better solution. Have the worker thread creation call
kthread_bind_mask() before attach_to_pool() and have attach_to_pool()
keep using set_cpus_allowed_ptr(). Less ugly.

Because sched_setscheduler() checks p->flags & PF_NO_SETAFFINITY
without locks, a caller might observe an old value and race with the
set_cpus_allowed_ptr() call from __kthread_bind() and effectively undo
it.
__kthread_bind()
do_set_cpus_allowed()
<SYSCALL>
sched_setaffinity()
if (p->flags & PF_NO_SETAFFINITIY)
set_cpus_allowed_ptr()
p->flags |= PF_NO_SETAFFINITY
Fix the issue by putting everything under the regular scheduler locks.
This also closes a hole in the serialization of
task_struct::{nr_,}cpus_allowed.
