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

From: Frederic Weisbecker <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 13 Oct 2025 22:31:40 +0200

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 should always be a superset of
the housekeeping mask of nohz_full CPUs (there can be CPUs that are
domain isolated but not nohz_full, OTOH there shouldn'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.
