From: chaixianping <chaixianping@xxxxxxxxxx> Fix the race between fork and update_cpumask or update_nodemask. Scenario as follows: 1)A process fork a child process, the child process have inherited the parent process cpus_allowed,mems_allowed Before being added cset->tasks list. 2)Update_cpumask or update_nodemask change the parent's allowed to a new value, *but the child still is the old value. after being added cset->tasks list.
