Yes, the mask should become 0-1,3. when original is 2 after cpu2 is offlined.
When cpu2 is offined
original mask after cpu2 is offined
1 1
1-2 1
0-3 0-1,3
2 0-1,3
2(the task who do the offline) 0
I think the last line is incorrect. This patch fix it.

A condition is described in changelog(the same as above).
An example of other condition: the CPUSET of the task is changed
when this task do the offline... the last recovery may fails.
