+- * This function is wildly self concurrent, consider at least 3 times.
++ * This function is wildly self concurrent; here be dragons.
++ *
++ *
++ * When given a valid mask, __set_cpus_allowed_ptr() must block until the
++ * designated task is enqueued on an allowed CPU. If that task is currently
++ * running, we have to kick it out using the CPU stopper.
++ *
++ * Migrate-Disable comes along and tramples all over our nice sandcastle.
++ * Consider:
++ *
++ * Initial conditions: P0->cpus_mask = [0, 1]
++ *
++ * P0@CPU0 P1
++ *
++ * migrate_disable();
++ * <preempted>
++ * set_cpus_allowed_ptr(P0, [1]);
++ *
++ * P1 *cannot* return from this set_cpus_allowed_ptr() call until P0 executes
++ * its outermost migrate_enable() (i.e. it exits its Migrate-Disable region).
++ * This means we need the following scheme:
++ *
++ * P0@CPU0 P1
++ *
++ * migrate_disable();
++ * <preempted>
++ * set_cpus_allowed_ptr(P0, [1]);
++ * <blocks>
++ * <resumes>
++ * migrate_enable();
++ * __set_cpus_allowed_ptr();
++ * <wakes local stopper>
++ * `--> <woken on migration completion>
++ *
++ * Now the fun stuff: there may be several P1-like tasks, i.e. multiple
++ * concurrent set_cpus_allowed_ptr(P0, [*]) calls. CPU affinity changes of any
++ * task p are serialized by p->pi_lock, which we can leverage: the one that
++ * should come into effect at the end of the Migrate-Disable region is the last
++ * one. This means we only need to track a single cpumask (i.e. p->cpus_mask),
++ * but we still need to properly signal those waiting tasks at the appropriate
++ * moment.
++ *
++ * This is implemented using struct set_affinity_pending. The first
++ * __set_cpus_allowed_ptr() caller within a given Migrate-Disable region will
++ * setup an instance of that struct and install it on the targeted task_struct.
++ * Any and all further callers will reuse that instance. Those then wait for
++ * a completion signaled at the tail of the CPU stopper callback (1), triggered
++ * on the end of the Migrate-Disable region (i.e. outermost migrate_enable()).
++ *
++ *
++ * (1) In the cases covered above. There is one more where the completion is
++ * signaled within affine_move_task() itself: when a subsequent affinity request
++ * cancels the need for an active migration. Consider:
++ *
++ * Initial conditions: P0->cpus_mask = [0, 1]
++ *
++ * P0@CPU0 P1 P2
++ *
++ * migrate_disable();
++ * <preempted>
++ * set_cpus_allowed_ptr(P0, [1]);
++ * <blocks>
++ * set_cpus_allowed_ptr(P0, [0, 1]);
++ * <signal completion>
++ * <awakes>
++ *
++ * Note that the above is safe vs a concurrent migrate_enable(), as any
++ * pending affinity completion is preceded an uninstallion of
++ * p->migration_pending done with p->pi_lock held.
