It was found during testing that an invalid leaf partition with an
empty effective exclusive CPU list can become a valid empty partition
with no CPU afer an offline/online operation of an unrelated CPU. An
empty partition root is allowed in the special case that it has no
task in its cgroup and has distributed out all its CPUs to its child
partitions. That is certainly not the case here.
The problem is in the cpumask_subsets() test in the hotplug case
(update with no new mask) of update_parent_effective_cpumask() as it
also returns true if the effective exclusive CPU list is empty. Fix that
by addding the cpumask_empty() test to root out this exception case.
Also add the cpumask_empty() test in cpuset_hotplug_update_tasks()
to avoid calling update_parent_effective_cpumask() for this special case.
Fixes: 0c7f293efc ("cgroup/cpuset: Add cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective for v2")

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 reStructuredText 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.
