Subject: [PATCH] cgroup/cpuset: Fix a partition bug with hotplug
References: bsc#1190050 (Cgroup functional and performance backports) stable-5.14.4
Patch-mainline: v5.15-rc1
Git-commit: 15d428e6fe77fffc3f4fff923336036f5496ef17
In cpuset_hotplug_workfn(), the detection of whether the cpu list
has been changed is done by comparing the effective cpus of the top
cpuset with the cpu_active_mask. However, in the rare case that just
all the CPUs in the subparts_cpus are offlined, the detection fails
and the partition states are not updated correctly. Fix it by forcing
the cpus_updated flag to true in this particular case.
Fixes: 4b842da276a8 ("cpuset: Make CPU hotplug work with partition")
