Frederic Weisbecker a8ea6fc9b0 sched: Stop PF_NO_SETAFFINITY from being inherited by various init system threads 
Commit:

  00b89fe019 ("sched: Make the idle task quack like a per-CPU kthread")

... added PF_KTHREAD | PF_NO_SETAFFINITY to the idle kernel threads.

Unfortunately these properties are inherited to the init/0 children
through kernel_thread() calls: init/1 and kthreadd. There are several
side effects to that:

1) kthreadd affinity can not be reset anymore from userspace. Also
   PF_NO_SETAFFINITY propagates to all kthreadd children, including
   the unbound kthreads Therefore it's not possible anymore to overwrite
   the affinity of any of them. Here is an example of warning reported
   by rcutorture:

		WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 116 at kernel/rcu/tree_nocb.h:1306 rcu_bind_current_to_nocb+0x31/0x40
		Call Trace:
		 rcu_torture_fwd_prog+0x62/0x730
		 kthread+0x122/0x140
		 ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30

2) init/1 does an exec() in the end which clears both
   PF_KTHREAD and PF_NO_SETAFFINITY so we are fine once kernel_init()
   escapes to userspace. But until then, no initcall or init code can
   successfully call sched_setaffinity() to init/1.

   Also PF_KTHREAD looks legit on init/1 before it calls exec() but
   we better be careful with unknown introduced side effects.

One way to solve the PF_NO_SETAFFINITY issue is to not inherit this flag
on copy_process() at all. The cases where it matters are:

* fork_idle(): explicitly set the flag already.
* fork() syscalls: userspace tasks that shouldn't be concerned by that.
* create_io_thread(): the callers explicitly attribute the flag to the
                      newly created tasks.
* kernel_thread():
	- Fix the issues on init/1 and kthreadd
	- Fix the issues on kthreadd children.
	- Usermode helper created by an unbound workqueue. This shouldn't
	  matter. In the worst case it gives more control to userspace
	  on setting affinity to these short living tasks although this can
	  be tuned with inherited unbound workqueues affinity already.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
