Per my understanding, cpuset isn't sysfs, but cgroupfs?

I did some research in my system,

$ grep . $(find /sys/devices | grep 'list$')

and

$ grep . $(find /sys/devices | grep 'cpus$')

I found that the cpus/cpus_list convention is used in

- pci

  /sys/devices/pci0000:64/0000:64:0d.2/local_cpulist:0-35
  /sys/devices/pci0000:64/0000:64:0c.2/local_cpus:f,ffffffff

- system

  /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu7/topology/core_cpus_list:7,25
  /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu7/topology/core_cpus:0,02000080

- block

  /sys/devices/virtual/block/loop1/mq/0/cpu_list:0, 1, 2, ...

- net

  /sys/devices/virtual/net/lo/queues/rx-0/rps_cpus:0,00000000

And I haven't found any exception in sysfs of my system.  Can you find
some?
