Does the same disclaimer apply to cpusets?

Unless it causes some undo pain, I would think that page migration
should _not_ violate a tasks cpuset. I guess this means that a typical
batch manager would move a task to its new cpuset on the new nodes, or
move the cpuset containing some tasks to their new nodes, before asking
the page migrator to drag along the currently allocated pages from the
old location.
