Subject: [RESEND PATCH v4 0/4] sched: Miscellaneous isolation related cleanups

 v4:
  - Make "isolcpus=nohz" equivalent to "nohz_full" as suggested by
    Federic.
  - Update the scheduler code to use HK_TYPE_KERNEL_NOISE.

 v3:
  - Fix incorrect housekeeping_nohz_full_setup() flags setting.

 v2:
  - Remove HK_TYPE_SCHED and related dead code
  - Change consolidated name from HK_TYPE_NOHZ_FULL to
    HK_TYPE_KERNEL_NOSISE as suggested by Frederic and update
    isolation.c as well.

This series contains a number of miscellaneous sched/isolation related
cleanups. Other than reducing the number of cpumasks in the housekeeping
structure, there should be no other functional change.

[v1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240818234520.90186-1-longman@redhat.com/
[v2] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240904171441.1048072-1-longman@redhat.com/
[v3] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240904183650.1053708-1-longman@redhat.com/

Waiman Long (4):
  sched/core: Remove HK_TYPE_SCHED
  sched/isolation: Make "isolcpus=nohz" equivalent to "nohz_full"
  sched/isolation: Consolidate housekeeping cpumasks that are always
    identical
  sched: Unify HK_TYPE_{TIMER|TICK|MISC} to HK_TYPE_KERNEL_NOISE
