I'm with you there, Simon. Not all cpusets should be exclusive.
It is reasonable for domain-capable schedulers, allocators and resource managers (domain aware CKRM?) require that any domain they manage correspond to an exclusive cpuset, for some value of exclusive stronger than now.
Less exclusive cpusets just wouldn't qualify for their own scheduler, allocator or resource manager domains.
