Subject: [PATCH] [CPUISOL] Export CPU isolation bits

From: Max Krasnyansky <maxk@...lcomm.com>

Here we're just exporting CPU isolation bitmap so that it can
be used outside the scheduler code.
Helper functions like cpu_isolated() are provided for easy access.
This is very similar to cpu_online() and friends.

The patch also exports 'isolated' bit via sysfs in very much the
same way 'online' bit is exposed today.

CPUs can be isolated either via command line isolcpu= option or
by doing something like this:
   echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
   echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/isolated
   echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
