It's not even siblings interfering with other siblings.  The resource
knobs belong to the parent, right?  So, the only thing it's doing is
restricting the parent itself from creating certain configurations,
which can be argued to be a feature but it's a really weird policy
enforcement implemented in kernel.

Sure, the only thing I think we need for cpuset is cutting down the
interface to the minimal set which provides all the features to
userspace.

Thanks.
