[PATCH] completely disable cpu_exclusive sched domain
At the suggestion of Nick Piggin and Dinakar, totally disable the facility to allow cpu_exclusive cpusets to define dynamic sched domains in Linux 2.6.13, in order to avoid problems first reported by John Hawkes (corrupt sched data structures and kernel oops). This has been built for ppc64, i386, ia64, x86_64, sparc, alpha. It has been built, booted and tested for cpuset functionality on an SN2 (ia64). Dinakar or Nick - could you verify that it for sure does avoid the problems Hawkes reported. Hawkes is out of town, and I don't have the recipe to reproduce what he found.
