cpuset: Call set_cpus_allowed_ptr() with appropriate mask for task
set_cpus_allowed_ptr() will fail with -EINVAL if the requested affinity mask is not a subset of the task_cpu_possible_mask() for the task being updated. Consequently, on a heterogeneous system with cpusets spanning the different CPU types, updates to the cgroup hierarchy can silently fail to update task affinities when the effective affinity mask for the cpuset is expanded. For example, consider an arm64 system with 4 CPUs, where CPUs 2-3 are the only cores capable of executing 32-bit tasks. Attaching a 32-bit task to a cpuset containing CPUs 0-2 will correctly affine the task to CPU 2. Extending the cpuset to CPUs 0-3, however, will fail to extend the affinity mask of the 32-bit task because update_tasks_cpumask() will pass the full 0-3 mask to set_cpus_allowed_ptr(). Extend update_tasks_cpumask() to take a temporary 'cpumask' paramater and use it to mask the 'effective_cpus' mask with the possible mask for each task being updated.
