kthread: Switch to cpu_possible_mask Next patch will switch unbound kernel threads mask to housekeeping_cpumask(), a subset of cpu_possible_mask. So in order to ease bisection, lets first switch kthreads default affinity from cpu_all_mask to cpu_possible_mask. It looks safe to do so as cpu_possible_mask seem to be initialized at setup_arch() time, way before kthreadd is created.
