attach_task() still uses a synchronize_rcu before doing a put_nsproxy in
the rcfs patches. This means cpuset_update_task_memory_state() can read a
task's cpuset->mems_generation under just a rcu_read_lock() (as it is
doing currently).
void cpuset_update_task_memory_state(void)
{
tsk = current;
...
} else {
rcu_read_lock();
ns = rcu_dereference(tsk->nsproxy);
my_cpusets_mem_gen =
ns->ctlr_data[cpuset_ctlr.subsys_id]->mems_generation;
rcu_read_unlock();
}
...
}
