From: Guopeng Zhang <zhangguopeng@kylinos.cn>

cpuset_partition_show() reads cs->prs_err without cpuset_mutex using
READ_ONCE(). The field is documented as not lock protected, but several
updates to live cpusets still use plain stores.

Convert the remaining prs_err stores on live cpusets to WRITE_ONCE().

Fixes: 0c7f293efc87 ("cgroup/cpuset: Add cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective for v2")
