Any feedback/suggestion for this patch?
Sorry about the delay.  I'm a bit worried because it feels like we're
chasing a squirrel.  I'll think through the recent changes and this
one and get back to you.
Can you please take a look at the following pending commit?

  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq.git/commit/?h=for-4.15-fixes&id=e8b3f8db7aad99fcc5234fc5b89984ff6620de3d

AFAICS, this should remove the circular dependency you originally
reported.  I'll revert the two cpuset commits for now.
So I liked his patches in that we would be able to go back to
synchronous sched_domain building.

This will fix the original circular locking dependency issue.
I will let you both (Peter & TJ) to decide on which one to
pick.
