[PATCH 6/7] rcu/exp: Handle parallel exp gp kworkers affinity

[Frederic Weisbecker]

Affine the parallel expedited gp kworkers to their respective RCU node
in order to make them close to the cache their are playing with.

This reuses the boost kthreads machinery that probe into CPU hotplug
operations such that the kthreads become/stay affine to their respective
node as soon/long as they contain online CPUs. Otherwise and if the
current CPU going down was the last online on the leaf node, the related
kthread is affine to the housekeeping CPUs.

In the long run, this affinity VS CPU hotplug operation game should
probably be implemented at the generic kthread level.
