update_flag() routine uses heap only when spread_flag_changed is true. Otherwise
heap isn't used, but is allocated and freed unnecessarily.

Fix this by allocating heap only when required.

I thought Ingo/PeterZ are maintainers of this as well, just after sending
patch I had a look at MAINTAINERS to see if I was wrong and forgot
somebody.

I saw Li there and sent a mail (private) to Li about this patch, I failed to
see you or the cgroups list mentioned there for CPUSETS and so just
sent mail to Li, otherwise I would have got all of you in loop..

Anyways, I forgot to add even Li in the first place, so yes accepted,
probably would be better if we can updated Maintainers :)
