+Cpusets
+-------

+The affinity of a 32-bit task may include CPUs that are not explicitly
+allowed by the cpuset to which it is attached. This can occur as a
+result of the following two situations:
+
+  - A 64-bit task attached to a cpuset which allows only 64-bit CPUs
+    executes a 32-bit program.
+
+  - All of the 32-bit-capable CPUs allowed by a cpuset containing a
+    32-bit task are offlined.
+
+In both of these cases, the new affinity is calculated according to step
+(2) of the process described in `execve(2)`_ and the cpuset hierarchy is
+unchanged irrespective of the cgroup version.

nit: Should we call out that we're breaking cpuset-v1 behavior? Don't feel
strongly about it.
