So the problem is that rebuild_sched_domains() destroys rd->dl_bw ? I
worry the above is racy in that you do not restore under the same
cpuset_mutex instance as you rebuild.

That is, what will stop a new task from joining the cpuset and
overloading the bandwidth between the root-domain getting rebuild and
restoring the bandwidth?
