[PATCH V2] cpu/hotplug: dont offline the last non-isolated CPU

From: Ran Xiaokai <ran.xiaokai@zte.com.cn>

If system has some isolate cpus with "isolcpus=" parameter,
and user try to offline all the non-isolated CPUs, kernel will
first report a warning and then panic when taking the last
non-isolated CPU offline.

When offline the last non-isolate cpu,
cpuset_hotplug_workfn()
rebuild_sched_domains_locked()
ndoms = generate_sched_domains(&doms, &attr);
cpumask_and(doms[0], top_cpuset.effective_cpus,
housekeeping_cpumask(HK_FLAG_DOMAIN));

As isolated cpus are excluded, "doms" passes to partition_sched_domains_locked()
will be an empty cpumask.

WARNING: CPU: 4 PID: 80 at kernel/sched/topology.c:2366 build_sched_domains+0x120c/0x1408

Kernel should not panic when user managing CPUs with this
meaningless behavior, so we add a check for this, which
prevent user taking the last non-isolated CPU offline.
