The io worker threads are userland threads that just never exit to the
userland. By that, they are also assigned to a cgroup (the group of the
creating task).

When creating a new io worker, this worker should inherit the cpuset
of the cgroup.

This still has that same ambient usage in the title which I just
cannot make sense of?
