Commit <f136b83139c63f20de0df3285d9e82df2fb97bfc> reworked process affinity setting but did not take cgroups into account which introduced an issue when starting VM with custom cpuset.cpus for the whole machine group.
If the machine group is limited to some pCPUs libvirt should not try to set a VM to run on all pCPUs as it will result in permission denied when writing to cpuset.cpus. To fix this the affinity has to be set separately from cgroups cpuset.
