Paul Menage,
The kernel/cpuset.c code handling the updating of a cpusets
'cpus' and 'mems' masks was starting to look a little bit
crufty to me.
So I rewrote it a little bit. Other than subtle improvements
in the consistency of identifying white space at the beginning
and end of passed in masks, I don't see that it makes any
visible difference in behaviour. But it's one or two hundred
kernel text bytes smaller, and to my eye, easier to understand.
If you find this to be an improvement, could you fold it
into your container patch set?
