Sure. I will move it down below pid.

I don't get what you want here. cpus is the cpuset's cpus_allowed mask.
effective_cpus is the effective_cpus mask. When you say cpus available
to the cgroup, do you mean the cpu_online_mask or the list of cpus from
the parent? Or do you just want to change the name to cpus.available
instead of effective_cpus?

Right, I will set CFTYPE_NOT_ON_ROOT to "cpus" and "mems" as we are not
supposed to change them in the root. The effective_cpus and
effective_mems will be there in the root to show what are available.

Cheers,
