[PATCH -next 0/3] cpuset: code cleanups

[PATCH -next 0/3] cpuset: code cleanups

[Chen Ridong]

From: Chen Ridong <chenridong@huawei.com>

Patch 1 simplifies the error handling path in cpuset_set_nodes() by
returning directly on failure, eliminating an unnecessary jump.

Patch 2 removes the global remote_children list and replaces it with
a boolean remote_partition flag, which provides a more direct way
to identify remote partitions.

Patch 3 removes need_rebuild_sched_domains.

Chen Ridong (3):
  cpuset: simplify node setting on error
  cpuset: remove global remote_children list
  cpuset: remove need_rebuild_sched_domains

[PATCH -next 1/3] cpuset: simplify node setting on error

[Chen Ridong]

From: Chen Ridong <chenridong@huawei.com>

There is no need to jump to the 'done' label upon failure, as no cleanup
is required. Return the error code directly instead.

[PATCH -next 2/3] cpuset: remove global remote_children list

[Chen Ridong]

From: Chen Ridong <chenridong@huawei.com>

The remote_children list is used to track all remote partitions attached
to a cpuset. However, it serves no other purpose. Using a boolean flag to
indicate whether a cpuset is a remote partition is a more direct approach,
making remote_children unnecessary.

This patch replaces the list with a remote_partition flag in the cpuset
structure and removes remote_children entirely.

The original purpose of adding a linked list for remote children is to 
enable us iterate the list of remote children when needed. This 
capability is not currently being used. So we can simplify it for now, 
but I would like to add a comment saying that we can switch it back to a 
list in case we need to iterate the remote children list in the future. 
Also I would suggest moving the bool up before partition_file to reduce 
the number of holes in the cpuset structure.

Cheers,
Longman

We don't need to initialize remote_partition here as the structure is 
zalloc'ed.

[PATCH -next 3/3] cpuset: remove need_rebuild_sched_domains

[Chen Ridong]

From: Chen Ridong <chenridong@huawei.com>

Previously, update_cpumasks_hier() used need_rebuild_sched_domains to
decide whether to invoke rebuild_sched_domains_locked(). Now that
rebuild_sched_domains_locked() only sets force_rebuild, the flag is
redundant. Hence, remove it.
