I would squash the two changes into a single patch. On Fri 10-09-21 17:21:32, Feng Tang wrote: [...] > +/* > + * Check if there has been insane configurations.

I would go with more specifics here. What about /* * This will get enabled whenever a cpuset configuration is considered * unsupportable in general.

The implementation works but I find it harder to read than really necessary.

It is not clear what the problem is and how to deal with it. What about pr_into("Unsupported (movable nodes only) cpuset configuration detected!
