This is strange. When tasks are moved from one cpuset to another, their cpumask
and nodemask will be updated and memory will be migrated, but only if the source
cpuset and dest cpuset have different masks. In this test case, all cpusets have
the same configs.
Try to comment out some lines in cpuset_attach(), and see if the problem still
exists?
