[PATCH v10 0/8] cgroup/cpuset: Major cpu partition code restructuring

[Waiman Long <longman@redhat.com>]

v10:
 - Relax constraints for changes made to "cpuset.cpus"
   and "cpuset.cpus.partition" as suggested. Now almost all changes
   are allowed.

v9:
 - Add a new patch 1 to remove the child cpuset restriction on parent's
   "cpuset.cpus".
 - Relax initial root partition entry limitation to allow cpuset.cpus to
   overlap that of parent's.
 - An "isolated invalid" displayed type is added to
   cpuset.cpus.partition.
 - Resetting partition root to "member" will leave child partition root
   as invalid.
 - Update documentation and test accordingly.

v8:
 - Reorganize the patch series and rationalize the features and
   constraints of a partition.
 - Update patch descriptions and documentation accordingly.

This patchset include the following enhancements to the cpuset v2
partition code.
 1) Allow partitions that have no task to have empty effective cpus.
 2) Relax the constraints on what changes are allowed in cpuset.cpus
    and cpuset.cpus.partition. However, the partition remain invalid
    until the constraints of a valid partition root is satisfied.
 3) Add a new "isolated" partition type for partitions with no load
    balancing which is available in v1 but not yet in v2.
 4) Allow the reading of cpuset.cpus.partition to include a reason
    string as to why the partition remain invalid.

 In addition, the cgroup-v2.rst documentation file is updated and
 a self test is added to verify the correctness the partition code.
