[PATCH -next RFC 00/11] Refactor cpus mask setting

[Chen Ridong <chenridong@huaweicloud.com>]

From: Chen Ridong <chenridong@huawei.com>

This patch series refactors the CPU mask configuration logic for both
cpuset.cpus and cpuset.cpus.exclusive settings. The primary goal is to
improve code readability through comprehensive function restructuring.

The CPU mask update process follows these steps:
1. Parse user input
2. Skip processing if no actual change to CPU mask
3. Compute trial cpuset's effective exclusive CPUs
4. Validate changes and return error if invalid
5. Handle partition state changes resulting from CPU mask modifications
6. Apply new CPU mask to the cpuset
7. Propagate changes through the hierarchy

The series is organized as follows:
patches 1-3: Code cleanup and preparation for refactoring
patches 4-9: Refactoring of cpuset.cpus configuration logic
patches 10-11: Refactoring of cpuset.cpus.exclusive configuration logic

Chen Ridong (11):
  cpuset: move the root cpuset write check earlier
  cpuset: remove unused assignment to trialcs->partition_root_state
  cpuset: change return type of is_partition_[in]valid to bool
  cpuset: Refactor exclusive CPU mask computation logic
  cpuset: refactor CPU mask buffer parsing logic
  cpuset: introduce cpus_excl_conflict and mems_excl_conflict helpers
  cpuset: refactor out invalidate_cs_partition
  cpuset: refactor acpus_validate_change
  cpuset: refactor partition_cpus_change
  cpuset: use parse_cpulist for setting cpus.exclusive
  cpuset: use partition_cpus_change for setting exclusive cpus
