This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
cgroup/cpuset: Change references of cpuset_mutex to cpuset_rwsem
to the 5.10-stable tree which can be found at:
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary
The filename of the patch is:
cgroup-cpuset-change-references-of-cpuset_mutex-to-cpuset_rwsem.patch
and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory.
If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree,
please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it.

Subject: cgroup/cpuset: Change references of cpuset_mutex to cpuset_rwsem
To: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Cc: "Tejun Heo" <tj@xxxxxxxxxx>, "Michal Koutný" <mkoutny@xxxxxxxx>, "Giuseppe Scrivano" <gscrivan@xxxxxxxxxx>, "Waiman Long" <longman@xxxxxxxxxx>
Message-ID: <20230417171958.3389333-1-longman@xxxxxxxxxx>
From: Waiman Long <longman@xxxxxxxxxx>
Commit b94f9ac79a7395c2d6171cc753cc27942df0be73 upstream.
Since commit 1243dc518c9d ("cgroup/cpuset: Convert cpuset_mutex to
percpu_rwsem"), cpuset_mutex has been replaced by cpuset_rwsem which is
a percpu rwsem. However, the comments in kernel/cgroup/cpuset.c still
reference cpuset_mutex which are now incorrect.
Change all the references of cpuset_mutex to cpuset_rwsem.
Fixes: 1243dc518c9d ("cgroup/cpuset: Convert cpuset_mutex to percpu_rwsem")
