cpuset: Enable cpuset controller in default hierarchy
Given the fact that thread mode had been merged into 4.14, it is now time to enable cpuset to be used in the default hierarchy (cgroup v2) as it is clearly threaded. The cpuset controller had experienced feature creep since its introduction more than a decade ago. Besides the core cpus and mems control files to limit cpus and memory nodes, there are a bunch of additional features that can be controlled from the userspace. Some of the features are of doubtful usefulness and may not be actively used. This patch enables cpuset controller in the default hierarchy with a minimal set of features, namely just the cpus and mems and their effective_* counterparts. We can certainly add more features to the default hierarchy in the future if there is a real user need for them later on. Alternatively, with the unified hiearachy, it may make more sense to move some of those additional cpuset features, if desired, to memory controller or may be to the cpu controller instead of staying with cpuset.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
