Subject: [PATCH 14/33] cpuset: Update HK_TYPE_DOMAIN cpumask from cpuset

From: Frederic Weisbecker <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 1 Jan 2026 23:13:39 +0100

Until now, HK_TYPE_DOMAIN used to only include boot defined isolated
CPUs passed through isolcpus= boot option. Users interested in also
knowing the runtime defined isolated CPUs through cpuset must use
different APIs: cpuset_cpu_is_isolated(), cpu_is_isolated(), etc...

There are many drawbacks to that approach:

1) Most interested subsystems want to know about all isolated CPUs, not
  just those defined on boot time.

2) cpuset_cpu_is_isolated() / cpu_is_isolated() are not synchronized with
  concurrent cpuset changes.

3) Further cpuset modifications are not propagated to subsystems

Solve 1) and 2) and centralize all isolated CPUs within the
HK_TYPE_DOMAIN housekeeping cpumask.

Subsystems can rely on RCU to synchronize against concurrent changes.

The propagation mentioned in 3) will be handled in further patches.
