Hi Frieder,

thanks for your comments.

That's a good idea.

Well, it's not documented, but it pops up occasionally in some commits, e.g.
3fb906e7fabbb ("cgroup/cpuset: Don't filter offline CPUs in 
cpuset_cpus_allowed() for top cpuset tasks")
I might be something only some maintainers accept though.

Well, it's not exactly cherry-picked, but extracted from an existing commit 
[1], so that's maybe why my name has been put into From: while extracting.
As the diff in this patch is not exactly the same as from the origin, I did 
not want to put Robin Gong into Signed-off-by. And I think having an author in 
From: but not in Signed-off-by: tag should not happen.
Searching how I can still give credit I found Originally-from. If there is a 
better way to handle this, I'm ready to adapt to that.

Best regards,
Alexander
