Currently, a partition root cannot have empty "cpuset.cpus.effective". As a result, a parent partition root cannot distribute out all its CPUs to child partitions with no CPUs left. However in most cases, there shouldn't be any tasks associated with intermediate nodes of the default hierarchy. So the current rule is too restrictive and can waste valuable CPU resource. To address this issue, we are now allowing a partition to have empty "cpuset.cpus.effective" as long as it has no task. Since cpuset is threaded, no-internal-process rule does not apply. So it is possible to have tasks in a partition root with child sub-partitions even though that should be uncommon. A parent partition with no task can now have all its CPUs distributed out to its child partitions. The top cpuset always have some house-keeping tasks running and so its list of effective cpu can't be empty. Once a partition with empty "cpuset.cpus.effective" is formed, no new task can be moved into it until "cpuset.cpus.effective" becomes non-empty.
