Linux stable v5.10.226 suffers a lockdep warning when accessing
/proc/PID/cpuset. cset_cgroup_from_root() is called without cgroup_mutex
is held, which causes assertion failure.
Bisect blames 5.10.225 commit 688325078a8b ("cgroup/cpuset: Prevent UAF
in proc_cpuset_show()"). I've have not easily reproduced the problem
that this change fixes, so I'm not sure if it's best to revert the fix
or adapt it to meet the 5.10 locking expectations.
The lockdep complaint:
$ cat /proc/1/cpuset
$ dmesg
