Subject: Re: [PATCHv2] sched/deadline: Walk up cpuset hierarchy to decide
 root domain when hot-unplug

Hi Pingfan,

kernel test robot noticed the following build warnings:

[auto build test WARNING on tj-cgroup/for-next]
[also build test WARNING on tip/sched/core tip/master linus/master v6.18-rc1 next-20251016]
[cannot apply to tip/auto-latest]
[If your patch is applied to the wrong git tree, kindly drop us a note.
And when submitting patch, we suggest to use '--base' as documented in
