Let's ignore cpuset for now. CPU hotplug is sometimes driven automatically for power saving purposes, so failing operation based on whether a cpu is online means that the success or failure of the operation can seem arbitrary. If the operation takes place while the cpu happens to be online, it succeeds and the thread gets unbound and rebound automatically as the cpu goes offline and online. If the operation takes place while the cpu happens to be offline, the operation fails. I don't know what the intended behavior here should be and we haven't been pretty bad at defining reasonable behavior around cpu hotplug, so it'd probably be worthwhile to consider what the behavior should be.
