Subject: [PATCH] cgroup/cpuset: Make cpuset_fork() handle CLONE_INTO_CGROUP
properly

By default, the clone(2) syscall spawn a child process into the same cgroup as its parent. With the use of the CLONE_INTO_CGROUP flag introduced by commit ef2c41cf38a7 ("clone3: allow spawning processes into cgroups"), the child will be spawned into a different cgroup which is somewhat similar to writing the child's tid into "cgroup.threads".

The current cpuset_fork() method does not properly handle the CLONE_INTO_CGROUP case where the cpuset of the child may be different from that of its parent. Update the cpuset_fork() method to treat the CLONE_INTO_CGROUP case similar to cpuset_attach().

Since the newly cloned task has not been running yet, its actual memory usage isn't known. So it is not necessary to make change to mm in cpuset_fork().

Fixes ef2c41cf38a7 ("clone3: allow spawning processes into cgroups")
