The current cpuset partition code is able to dynamically update
the sched domains of a running system and the corresponding
HK_TYPE_DOMAIN housekeeping cpumask to perform what is essentially the
"isolcpus=domain,..." boot command line feature at run time.
The housekeeping cpumask update requires flushing a number of different
workqueues which may not be safe with cpus_read_lock() held as the
workqueue flushing code may acquire cpus_read_lock() or acquiring locks
which have locking dependency with cpus_read_lock() down the chain. Below
is an example of such circular locking problem.

To avoid such a circular locking dependency problem, we have to
call housekeeping_update() without holding the cpus_read_lock() and
cpuset_mutex. The current set of wq's flushed by housekeeping_update()
may not have work functions that call cpus_read_lock() directly,
but we are likely to extend the list of wq's that are flushed in the
future. Moreover, the current set of work functions may hold locks that
may have cpu_hotplug_lock down the dependency chain.
So housekeeping_update() is now called after releasing cpus_read_lock
and cpuset_mutex at the end of a cpuset operation. These two locks are
then re-acquired later before calling rebuild_sched_domains_locked().
To enable mutual exclusion between the housekeeping_update() call and
other cpuset control file write actions, a new top level cpuset_top_mutex
is introduced. This new mutex will be acquired first to allow sharing
variables used by both code paths. However, cpuset update from CPU
hotplug can still happen in parallel with the housekeeping_update()
call, though that should be rare in production environment.
As cpus_read_lock() is now no longer held when
tmigr_isolated_exclude_cpumask() is called, it needs to acquire it
directly.
The lockdep_is_cpuset_held() is also updated to return true if either
cpuset_top_mutex or cpuset_mutex is held.
