IO queues are allocated/spread on the isolated CPUs and if there is an
thread submitting IOs from an isolated CPU it will cause noise on the
isolated CPUs. The question is this a use case you need/want to support?
We have customers who are complaining that even with isolcpus provided
they still see IO noise on the isolated CPUs.
