From: Waiman Long <longman@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 292fd843de26c551856e66faf134512c52dd78b4 upstream.
It was found that commit 7a2127e66a00 ("cpuset: Call
set_cpus_allowed_ptr() with appropriate mask for task") introduced a bug
that corrupted "cpuset.cpus" of a partition root when it was updated.
It is because the tmp->new_cpus field of the passed tmp parameter
of update_parent_subparts_cpumask() should not be used at all as
it contains important cpumask data that should not be overwritten.
Fix it by using tmp->addmask instead.
Also update update_cpumask() to make sure that trialcs->cpu_allowed
will not be corrupted until it is no longer needed.
Fixes: 7a2127e66a00 ("cpuset: Call set_cpus_allowed_ptr() with appropriate mask for task")
