Fix cpusets update_cpumask

Cause writes to cpuset "cpus" file to update cpus_allowed for member tasks:

- collect batches of tasks under tasklist_lock and then call
  set_cpus_allowed() on them outside the lock (since this can sleep).

- add a simple generic priority heap type to allow efficient collection
  of batches of tasks to be processed without duplicating or missing any
  tasks in subsequent batches.

- make "cpus" file update a no-op if the mask hasn't changed

- fix race between update_cpumask() and sched_setaffinity() by making
  sched_setaffinity() post-check that it's not running on any cpus outside
  cpuset_cpus_allowed().
