Subject: [PATCH v7 0/7]  sched/deadline: fix cpusets bandwidth accounting

Hi,

v7 of a series of patches, originally authored by Mathieu, with the intent
of fixing a long standing issue of SCHED_DEADLINE bandwidth accounting.
As originally reported by Steve [1], when hotplug and/or (certain)
cpuset reconfiguration operations take place, DEADLINE bandwidth
accounting information is lost since root domains are destroyed and
recreated.

Mathieu's approach is based on restoring bandwidth accounting info on
the newly created root domains by iterating through the (DEADLINE) tasks
belonging to the configured cpuset(s).

Apart from the usual rebase on top of cgroup/for-next, changes worth of
notice are:

 - commented about potential problems w.r.t. userspace operations that
   grabs callback_lock (03/07 - peterz)
 - take cpuset_read_only_lock() before rq an pi locks, as to not
   introduce a dependency between the former and the latters; on !CONFIG_
   CPUSET cpuset_read_only(un)lock() (dis/en)ables irqs and preemption
   (04/07 - peterz)
 - make dl_add_task_root_domain() use !_irqsave (un)lock functions
 - also use __dl_add() to update root domain total_bw
 - 06/07 new patch; seq_show operations can be guarded by cpuset_mutex
   (peterz)
 - 07/07 new patch; deals with offline migrations (noticed the problem
   while testing)
