The patch titled
cpusets: allow empty {cpus,mems}_allowed to be set for unpopulated cpuset
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
cpusets-allow-empty-cpusmems_allowed-to-be-set-for.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: cpusets: allow empty {cpus,mems}_allowed to be set for unpopulated cpuset
From: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx>
You currently cannot remove all cpus or mems from cpus_allowed or
mems_allowed of a cpuset. We now allow both if there are no attached
tasks.
