Right now, update_tasks_cpumask() is not supposed to be called with top cpuset. With cpuset partition that takes CPUs away from the top cpuset, we may want to consider adjusting the cpu_allows mask of the tasks in the top cpuset as well. However, we need more investigation to figure out a way to do that without breaking non-cgroup aware applications in the top cpuset. So move the top_cpuset check into update_tasks_cpumask() and add a comment about possible future work.
