[RFC 2/3] rt: Update nr_cpus_allowed if the affinity of a task changes while its migration is disabled

From: Daniel Bristot de Oliveira
Date: Fri Jun 16 2017 - 06:40:24 EST


Currently, if the affinity of a task changes when it is with migration
disabled, the nr_cpus_allowed is not being updated, creating an
inconsistency between nr_cpus_allowed and cpumask_weight(cpus_allowed)

This patch fixes this problem by calling set_cpus_allowed_common()
if the cpumask of a task changes while it is with migration disable.
