This is inconsistent with how other events which leave a root partition
empty is handled. Woudln't it be more consistent to switch the parent to
PRS_ERROR and behave accordingly but allow it to have valid child roots?

From my point of view, PRS_ERROR is used when cpus are gone because of cpu hotplug (offline). It can be a temporary condition that will be corrected later on. I don't want to use PRS_ERROR for the particular case that the users have explicitly distributed out all the cpus to child partitions. I will clarify it in the next version and double check to make sure that this rule is consistently apply.

Thanks,
Longman
