Subject: [PATCH v6 2/2] cpuset: Add cpuset.sched_load_balance to v2
The sched_load_balance flag is needed to enable CPU isolation similar
to what can be done with the "isolcpus" kernel boot parameter.
The sched_load_balance flag implies an implicit !cpu_exclusive as
it doesn't make sense to have an isolated CPU being load-balanced in
another cpuset.
For v2, this flag is hierarchical and is inherited by child cpusets. It
is not allowed to have this flag turn off in a parent cpuset, but on
in a child cpuset.
This flag is set by the parent and is not delegatable.
