Since commit f62a5d39368e ("cgroup/cpuset: Remove remote_partition_check() & make update_cpumasks_hier() handle remote partition"), the compute_effective_exclusive_cpumask() helper was extended to strip exclusive CPUs from siblings when computing effective_xcpus (cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective). This helper was later renamed to compute_excpus() in commit 86bbbd1f33ab ("cpuset: Refactor exclusive CPU mask computation logic").
This helper is supposed to be used consistently to compute effective_xcpus. However, there is an exception within the callback critical section in update_cpumasks_hier() when exclusive_cpus of a valid partition root is empty. This can cause effective_xcpus value to differ depending on where exactly it is last computed. Fix this by using compute_excpus() in this case to give a consistent result.
