Is this an allowed API? I.e., I don't think that you're allowed to set that so
simply. In fact, this is what I get on a 2.6.12-rc3 tree.
$ grep cpus_allowed include/linux/sched.h
cpumask_t cpus_allowed;
extern int set_cpus_allowed(task_t *p, cpumask_t new_mask);
static inline int set_cpus_allowed(task_t *p, cpumask_t new_mask)
Satisfied? Grep is always your friend...

How did you verify this? Also, I guess you really mean cpu0 (the first cpu).

Hmm, Jeff said that at least interrupts only run on cpu0... however, I won't
consider this as a real UML bug unless using the correct API does not provide
the expected results.
