[PATCH] workqueue: Restrict kworker in the offline CPU pool running on housekeeping CPUs

From: Zqiang
Date: Tue Mar 29 2022 - 01:16:57 EST


When CPU going offline, all workers in this CPU pool will lose
affinity to this CPU, and may run to isolated CPU. like kworker
in unbound pool, set CPU affinity of these kworker is housekeeping
cpumask.
