x86/resctrl: Add cpumask_any_housekeeping() for limbo/overflow
The limbo and overflow code picks a CPU to use from the domain's list of online
CPUs. Work is then scheduled on these CPUs to maintain the limbo list and any
counters that may overflow.
cpumask_any() may pick a CPU that is marked nohz_full, which will either
penalise the work that CPU was dedicated to, or delay the processing of limbo
list or counters that may overflow. Perhaps indefinitely. Delaying the overflow
handling will skew the bandwidth values calculated by mba_sc, which expects to
be called once a second.
Add cpumask_any_housekeeping() as a replacement for cpumask_any() that prefers
housekeeping CPUs. This helper will still return a nohz_full CPU if that is the
only option. The CPU to use is re-evaluated each time the limbo/overflow work
runs. This ensures the work will move off a nohz_full CPU once a housekeeping
CPU is available.
