The following lockdep splat was observed.

Since commit d74b27d63a8b ("cgroup/cpuset: Change cpuset_rwsem and hotplug lock order"), the ordering of cpu hotplug lock and cpuset_mutex had been reversed. That patch correctly used the cpuslocked version of the static branch API to enable cpusets_pre_enable_key and cpusets_enabled_key, but it didn't do the same for cpusets_insane_config_key.
The cpusets_insane_config_key can be enabled in the check_insane_mems_config() which is called from update_nodemask() or cpuset_hotplug_update_tasks() with both cpu hotplug lock and cpuset_mutex held. Deadlock can happen with a pending hotplug event that tries to acquire the cpu hotplug write lock which will block further cpus_read_lock() attempt from check_insane_mems_config(). Fix that by switching to use static_branch_enable_cpuslocked().
