[LTP] [PATCH v3 1/2] cpuset: skip test when cpu or nodes are not numbered continuously from 0

Good catch :).

BTW how this happen? hot-unplug on lpar?
Maybe add brief note about it into commit message.

nit: I'd personally do:

f="/sys/devices/system/node/has_high_memory"
[ -f "$f" ] || f="/sys/devices/system/node/has_normal_memory"
N_NODES="$(cat $f | tr ',' ' ')"

but that's a tiny detail.

It'd be great to rewrite these tests into C.

Kind regards,
Petr
