The kernel commit9a5418bc48("sched/core: Use kfree_rcu() in do_set_cpus_allowed()") introduces a bug for kernels built with non-SMP configs. Calling sched_setaffinity() on such a uniprocessor kernel will cause cpumask_copy() to be called with a NULL pointer leading to general protection fault. This is not really a problem in real use cases as there aren't that many uniprocessor kernel configs in use and calling sched_setaffinity() on such a uniprocessor system doesn't make sense. Fix this problem by making sure cpumask_copy() will not be called in such a case.

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.
