Subject: [PATCH-cgroup v2 0/5] cgroup/cpuset: Fix miscellaneous issues

 v2:
  - Fix test_cpuset_prs.sh problems reported by test robot
  - Relax restriction imposed between cpuset.cpus.exclusive and
    cpuset.cpus of sibling cpusets.
  - Make cpuset.cpus.exclusive independent of cpuset.cpus. 
  - Update test_cpuset_prs.sh accordingly.
  
 [v1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240605171858.1323464-1-longman@redhat.com/

This patchset attempts to address the following cpuset issues.
 1) While reviewing the generate_sched_domains() function, I found a bug
    in generating sched domains for remote non-isolating partitions.
 2) Test robot had reported a test_cpuset_prs.sh test failure.
 3) The current exclusivity test between cpuset.cpus.exclusive and
    cpuset.cpus and the restriction that the set effective exclusive
    CPUs has to be a subset of cpuset.cpus make it harder to preconfigure
    the cgroup hierarchy to enable remote partition.

The test_cpuset_prs.sh script is updated to match changes made in this
patchset and was run to verify that the new code did not cause any
regression.

Waiman Long (5):
  cgroup/cpuset: Fix remote root partition creation problem
  selftest/cgroup: Fix test_cpuset_prs.sh problems reported by test
    robot
  cgroup/cpuset: Delay setting of CS_CPU_EXCLUSIVE until valid partition
  cgroup/cpuset: Make cpuset.cpus.exclusive independent of cpuset.cpus
  selftest/cgroup: Update test_cpuset_prs.sh to match changes
