Heh, I bet you understand it better than me ;)

I think you are right...

But, don't we need sched_class->set_cpus_allowed() in this case? Only for
consistency, iiuc currently it is not needed because the task is not active.

IOW, perhaps cpuset_cpus_allowed_fallback() should do


if (p->sched_class->set_cpus_allowed)
p->sched_class->set_cpus_allowed(p, cpu_possible_mask);
else {
cpumask_copy(&p->cpus_allowed, cpu_possible_mask);
p->rt.nr_cpus_allowed = cpumask_weight(cpu_possible_mask);
}

?

If yes, probably the new do_set_cpus_allowed(p, mask) helper makes sense,
it can be used by set_cpus_allowed_ptr() too.
