Given that sq_thread is user-like thread and belongs to the right cgroup,
I'm not quite sure what the above achieves - the affinities can break
anytime, so one-time check doesn't really solve the problem. All it seems to
add is warning messages. What's the expected behavior when an io thread
can't run on the target cpu anymore?
Thanks.
