The user_cpus_ptr field is added by commit b90ca8badbd1 ("sched:
Introduce task_struct::user_cpus_ptr to track requested affinity"). It
is currently used only by arm64 arch due to possible asymmetric CPU
setup. This patch extends its usage to save user provided cpumask when
sched_setaffinity() is called for all arches. With this patch applied,
user_cpus_ptr, once allocated after a call to sched_setaffinity(),
will only be freed when the task exits.
Since user_cpus_ptr is supposed to be used for "requested
affinity", there is actually no point to save current cpu affinity in
restrict_cpus_allowed_ptr() if sched_setaffinity() has never been called.
Modify the logic to set user_cpus_ptr only in sched_setaffinity() and use
it in restrict_cpus_allowed_ptr() and relax_compatible_cpus_allowed_ptr()
if defined but not changing it.
This will be some changes in behavior for arm64 systems with asymmetric
CPUs in some corner cases. For instance, if sched_setaffinity()
has never been called and there is a cpuset change before
relax_compatible_cpus_allowed_ptr() is called, its subsequent call will
follow what the cpuset allows but not what the previous cpu affinity
setting allows.
As a call to sched_setaffinity() will no longer clear user_cpus_ptr
but set it instead, the SCA_USER flag is no longer necessary and can
be removed.
