I saw the description of the cpuset migration test.  Have you wrapped
this in a script suitable for running under usex?  If so, I would like
to get a copy.  Actually, please send me any automation you have for
this test and I'll incorporate it into the usex load.  Meanwhile, I'll
take a cut at adding such a test to the load.  However, we know that
your version can provoke the panic, so I'd like to get that.
