Why is the tunable needed ? IMO it is more reasonable to create a new
cpuset always, at least I cannot explain why the existing behaviour
is useful. If creating new cpuset unconditionally, you could consider
doing it in kernel in start_init(). You would also need to update the
cpuset(2) man page, which states that cpuset 1 is set for all processes.
Still, see comments below for the patch.

If you use the && operator for conditionals instead of two if()s, the nesti=
ng
level of the block can be reduced.

The variable must be declared at the function start.

Why do you need to initialize the variable ?

This could be else if () again to reduce indentation.
