Currently the user can set up isolated cpus via cpuset and nohz_full in
such a way that leaves no housekeeping CPU (i.e. no CPU that is neither
domain isolated nor nohz full). This can be a problem for other
subsystems (e.g. the timer wheel imgration).

Prevent this configuration by blocking any assignation that would cause
the union of domain isolated cpus and nohz_full to covers all CPUs.

[longman: Remove isolated_cpus_should_update() and rewrite the checking
 in update_prstate() and update_parent_effective_cpumask()]
