Subject: [PATCH] cpuset: update top cpuset's mems after adding a node

After adding a node into the machine, top cpuset's mems isn't updated.

By reviewing the code, we found that the update function
cpuset_track_online_nodes()
was invoked after node_states[N_ONLINE] changes. It is wrong because N_ONLINE
just means node has pgdat, and if node has/added memory, we use N_HIGH_MEMORY.
So, We should invoke the update function after node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY]
changes, just like its commit says.

This patch fixes it. And we use notifier of memory hotplug instead of direct
calling of cpuset_track_online_nodes().

I did it on IA64 just now. Updating top cpuset's mems is fine.
But I forgot to update the mems_allowed of every task in top cpuset group.
It is difficult to fix it, because I don't know whether updating a memory-bound
task's mem_allowed is good or not.

cpuset_track_online_cpus() has the same problem.

There's a fix pending in the mmotm tree that calls
cpuset_update_task_memory_state() in the slow path of the page allocator,
so if one of these tasks fails to allocate memory, its cached mems_allowed
nodemask will be updated to include the new node(s).

The patch is available at
http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/cpusets-update-mems-allowed-in-page-allocator.patch

Ah, OK. This seems reasonable.

Then Miao-san's patch is fine.
