Linus - do *NOT* actually apply the literal patch that Dinakar ack'd. 1) It's logic is backwards - arrgh. 2) It doesn't undo the other attempt to partially disable this. 3) It's not a formally submitted and signed off patch from me, but just a (useful) topic of discussion. I have a pair of patches running through crosstool on several arch's now. The first patch undoes the partial disable of the cpuset to sched domain connection that is in 2.6.13-rc7 now. The second patch does what Nick and Dinakar now agree is right - totally disabling the ability for exclusive cpusets to define sched domains in 2.6.13. -- I won't rest till it's the best ...
