It might never have been changed away.


	migrate_disable()
	  ->migration_disabled++;
	|	|
	|	|
	|	v
	|	migrate_disable_switch()
	|	  if (->cpus_ptr == &->cpus_mask)
	|	    __do_set_cpus_allowed(.new_mask = cpumask_of())
	|	|
	|	|
	v	v
	migrate_enable()
	  ->migration_disabled--;


Only if we've passed through a context switch between migrate_disable()
and migrate_enable() will the mask have been changed.
