Well, those are the only ones we can do anything about.  Dirt simple
diddling of the workqueue default mask as sched domains are
added/removed should do it I think.  Automatically moving any existing
unbound worker away from isolated cores at the same time would be a
bonus, most important is that no new threads sneak in.
