[PATCH 12/21] sched,arm64: Handle CPU isolation on last resort fallback rq selection

From: Frederic Weisbecker
Date: Tue Nov 12 2024 - 09:26:42 EST


When a kthread or any other task has an affinity mask that is fully
offline or unallowed, the scheduler reaffines the task to all possible
CPUs as a last resort.

This default decision doesn't mix up very well with nohz_full CPUs that
are part of the possible cpumask but don't want to be disturbed by
unbound kthreads or even detached pinned user tasks.

Make the fallback affinity setting aware of nohz_full. ARM64 is a
special case and its last resort EL0 32bits capable CPU can be updated
as housekeeping CPUs appear on boot.
