[GIT PULL] Introduce housekeeping subsystem v4

[Frederic Weisbecker]

Ingo,

Please pull the core/isolation-v4 branch that can be found at:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/linux-dynticks.git
	core/isolation-v4

HEAD: cf4c55aad44251369c8507c3823f9f9c51d4dc77

Summary of changes:

* Move the housekeeping code that was tied to NO_HZ to its own subsystem.
  Currently NO_HZ governs the other isolation features which is not right
  as dynticks is just an isolation feature like the others. We want to
  centralize the CPU isolation decisions to a subsystem of its own instead.

* Integrate isolcpus code to housekeeping and treat it as a CPU isolation
  feature.

* Reuse the "isolcpus=" kernel parameter to control the CPU isolation.
  For now only tick and domains can be isolated after this patchset:

       isolcpus=1-7         # isolate domains on CPU range 1 to 7
                            # "domain" flag is implicit by default to
                            # keep the current behaviour
                            
       isolcpus=domain,1-7  # do the same

       isolcpus=nohz,1-7    # apply nohz_full to CPU range 1 to 7

       isolcpus=nohz,domain,1-7  # apply nohz_full and isolate domains of
                                 # CPU range 1 to 7

Thanks,
	Frederic
