When isolcpus=managed_irq is enabled all hardware queues should run on
the housekeeping CPUs only. Thus ignore the affinity mask provided by
the driver. Also we can't use blk_mq_map_queues because it will map all
CPUs to first hctx unless, the CPU is the same as the hctx has the
affinity set to, e.g. 8 CPUs with isolcpus=managed_irq,2-3,6-7 config

  queue mapping for /dev/nvme0n1
        hctx0: default 2 3 4 6 7
        hctx1: default 5
        hctx2: default 0
        hctx3: default 1

  PCI name is 00:05.0: nvme0n1
        irq 57 affinity 0-1 effective 1 is_managed:0 nvme0q0
        irq 58 affinity 4 effective 4 is_managed:1 nvme0q1
        irq 59 affinity 5 effective 5 is_managed:1 nvme0q2
        irq 60 affinity 0 effective 0 is_managed:1 nvme0q3
        irq 61 affinity 1 effective 1 is_managed:1 nvme0q4

where as with blk_mq_hk_map_queues we get

  queue mapping for /dev/nvme0n1
        hctx0: default 2 4
        hctx1: default 3 5
        hctx2: default 0 6
        hctx3: default 1 7

Looks the IO hang issue in V3 isn't addressed yet, is it?

Compared with in-tree code, the above words are misleading.

- irq core code respects isolated CPUs by trying to exclude isolated
CPUs from effective masks

- blk-mq won't schedule blockd on isolated CPUs

If application aren't run on isolated CPUs, IO interrupt usually won't
be triggered on isolated CPUs, so isolated CPUs are _not_ ignored.

IMO, this patchset is one improvement on existed best-effort approach, which
works fine most of times, so why you do think it slows down everyone?

If the change need userspace cooperation for using 'managed_irq', the exact
behavior need to be documented in both this commit and Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt,
instead of cover-letter only.

But this patch does cause regression for old applications which can't
follow the new introduced rule:

	```
	If the user is using isolcpus and does CPU hotplug, we can expect that the
	user can also first offline the isolated CPUs.
	```
