Certainly, the exclusive cpusets do not form a disjoint cover. Not disjoint, because the top cpuset is exclusive, and overlaps with all other cpusets. Nor do the other exclusive cpusets, excluding the top, necessarily form a cover - there might not even be any other such cpusets. -- I won't rest till it's the best ...
