Subject[PATCH v2 04/12] cpuset: inherit ancestor's masks if effective_{cpus,mems} becomes empty
We're going to have separate user-configured masks and effective ones.

Eventually configured masks can only be changed by writing cpuset.cpus
and cpuset.mems, and they won't be restricted by parent cpuset. While
effective masks reflect cpu/memory hotplug and hierachical restriction,
and these are the real masks that apply to the tasks in the cpuset.

We calculate effective mask this way:
- top cpuset's effective_mask == online_mask, otherwise
- cpuset's effective_mask == configured_mask & parent effective_mask,
if the result is empty, it inherits parent effective mask.

Those behavior changes are for sane_behavior only. For !sane_behavior
effective_mask and configured_mask are the same, so we won't break old
interfaces.

To make cs->effective_{cpus,mems} to be effective masks, we need to
- change the effective masks at hotplug
- change the effective masks at config change
- take on ancestor's mask when the effective mask is empty

This won't introduce behavior change.

v2:
- Add comments to explain effective masks are the same with configured
masks for !sane_behavior.
