Subject: [PATCH 12/33] cpuset: Provide lockdep check for cpuset lock held

cpuset modifies partitions, including isolated, while holding the cpuset
mutex.

This means that holding the cpuset mutex is safe to synchronize against
housekeeping cpumask changes.

Provide a lockdep check to validate that.
