As previously discussed(https://lkml.org/lkml/2022/1/20/51),
cpuset_attach() is affected with similar cpu hotplug race,
as follow scenario:

      cpuset_attach()				cpu hotplug
     ---------------------------            ----------------------
     down_write(cpuset_rwsem)
     guarantee_online_cpus() // (load cpus_attach)
					sched_cpu_deactivate
					  set_cpu_active()
					  // will change cpu_active_mask
     set_cpus_allowed_ptr(cpus_attach)
       __set_cpus_allowed_ptr_locked()
        // (if the intersection of cpus_attach and
          cpu_active_mask is empty, will return -EINVAL)
     up_write(cpuset_rwsem)

To avoid races such as described above, protect cpuset_attach() call
with cpu_hotplug_lock.

Fixes: be367d099270 ("cgroups: let ss->can_attach and ss->attach do whole threadgroups at a time")

The locking sequence looks right.
