I have posted a patch series that also include commit 18f9a4d47527 
("cgroup/cpuset: Skip spread flags update on v2") which is not 
technically a fix but is relative simple and low risk.  I have also 
twist the patches 1, 3 and 4 a bit to fit 5.10. Compile, boot and sanity 
tests were done to verify its correctness.

Cheers,
Longman
