Yeah, that seems a lot more congruent with the typical pattern.

be much users out there.
I haven't thought through it too hard but what prevents staying compatible
with the current behavior?

It is possible to stay compatible with existing behavior. It is just that a break from existing behavior will make the solution more clean.

So the new behavior will be:

  If the "cpuset.cpus.isolated" isn't set, the existing rules applies. If it is set, the new rule will be used.

Does that look reasonable to you?
