Yeah, maybe, it wouldn't hurt I guess. IMHO mentioning stress-ng's prctl
needs PR_SCHED_CORE support could also be handy since today's stress-ng
packages don't seem to have this yet.
My scripts clone it so I did not realize that was not in prepackaged versions
yet.  But that said, that's really just a way to tickle the problem. Anyone
using core scheduling on such a system will hit this (at least the WARN part,
the actual crash was harder to create w/o all the threads and tasks stress-ng
uses).
OK.

I just saw that there is even a kselftest for this:

9f2699007493 - kselftest: Add test for core sched prctl interface
(2021-05-12 Chris Hyser)

But it doesn't trigger the issue.
I can send a v3 with a further commit message update.
Sounds good.
