By default, the clone(2) syscall spawn a child process into the same

introduced by commit ef2c41cf38a7 ("clone3: allow spawning processes
into cgroups"), the child will be spawned into a different cgroup which
is somewhat similar to writing the child's tid into "cgroup.threads".
The current cpuset_fork() method does not properly handle the
CLONE_INTO_CGROUP case where the cpuset of the child may be different
from that of its parent. Update the cpuset_fork() method to treat the
CLONE_INTO_CGROUP case similar to cpuset_attach().
Since the newly cloned task has not been running yet, its actual
memory usage isn't known. So it is not necessary to make change to mm
in cpuset_fork().

Just two nits. I think this needs a Cc stable and it would be nice if
you could give Giuseppe a "Reported-by".
The presence of a fixes tag should make this patch picked up by stable.
Yes, I will cc stable when I need to update the patch next time.
Right, I should have added
