Like I mentioned in
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/cdede77a-5dc5-8933-a444-a2046b074b12@xxxxxxx
IMHO any CPU of the cpuset is fine since exclusive cpuset and related
root_domain (as the container for DL BW accounting data) are congruent
in terms of cpumask.

(2)

Just to check if I get this right, 2 bail-out conditions are necessary
because:

(1) is to prevent any new cs attach if there is already a DL cs attach
and (2) is to prevent a new DL cs attach if there is already a non-DL cs
attach.
