cpuset: fix a race condition in __cpuset_node_allowed_softwall()
commit 99afb0fd5f05aac467ffa85c36778fec4396209b upstream. It's not safe to access task's cpuset after releasing task_lock(). Holding callback_mutex won't help. Signed-off-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz>
