The patch appears to be layer upon the entire series but that in itself
is ok. This part is a problem

There is one check for the static key and a second for the count to see
if it's likely a valid cpuset that matters has been configured. The
point of that check was that it was lighter than __cpuset_zone_allowed
in the case where no cpuset is configured.
The patches are not equivalent.
