[PATCH 25/33] sched: Switch the fallback task allowed cpumask to HK_TYPE_DOMAIN

[PATCH 25/33] sched: Switch the fallback task allowed cpumask to HK_TYPE_DOMAIN

[Frederic Weisbecker]

Tasks that have all their allowed CPUs offline don't want their affinity
to fallback on either nohz_full CPUs or on domain isolated CPUs. And
since nohz_full implies domain isolation, checking the latter is enough
to verify both.

Therefore exclude domain isolation from fallback task affinity.

[PATCH 27/33] sched/arm64: Move fallback task cpumask to HK_TYPE_DOMAIN

[Frederic Weisbecker]

When none of the allowed CPUs of a task are online, it gets migrated
to the fallback cpumask which is all the non nohz_full CPUs.

However just like nohz_full CPUs, domain isolated CPUs don't want to be
disturbed by tasks that have lost their CPU affinities.

And since nohz_full rely on domain isolation to work correctly, the
housekeeping mask of domain isolated CPUs is always a subset of the
housekeeping mask of nohz_full CPUs (there can be CPUs that are domain
isolated but not nohz_full, OTOH there can't be nohz_full CPUs that are
not domain isolated):

	HK_TYPE_DOMAIN & HK_TYPE_KERNEL_NOISE == HK_TYPE_DOMAIN

Therefore use HK_TYPE_DOMAIN as the appropriate fallback target for
tasks and since this cpumask can be modified at runtime, make sure
that 32 bits support CPUs on ARM64 mismatched systems are not isolated
by cpusets.

We should construct the new cpumask by adding new CPUs and removing old 
ones from the existing isolated_cpus and pass it to 
arch_isolated_cpus_can_update() for the checking to be correct.
