As discussed in the LKML thread [1], the asynchronous nature of cpuset
hotplug handling code is causing problem with RCU testing. With recent
changes in the way locking is being handled in the cpuset code, it is
now possible to make the cpuset hotplug code synchronous again without
major changes.

This series enables the hotplug code to call directly into cpuset hotplug
core without indirection with the exception of the special case of v1
cpuset becoming empty still being handled indirectly with workqueue.

A new simple test case was also written to test this special v1 cpuset
case. The test_cpuset_prs.sh script was also run with LOCKDEP on to
verify that there is no regression.
