cpuset: fix unchecked calls to NODEMASK_ALLOC()
Those functions that use NODEMASK_ALLOC() can't propagate errno to users, but will fail silently. Fix it by using a static nodemask_t variable for each function, and those variables are protected by cgroup_mutex; [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix comment spelling, strengthen cgroup_lock comment] Signed-off-by: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Paul Menage <menage@google.com> Acked-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Miao Xie <miaox@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
