Hi there.

Just to draw a line under the CPU0 isolation subject.

According to RPi kernel development this feature is no longer available.


What's happening?

At powerup CPU0 starts up first. The rest of the bunch launches a tick
later. 
In between comes the isolcpus function. At that point in time only CPU0
is up.
At least one CPU must be available. That's why it won't get isolated. 
It used to be done this way that the isolcpus function predicted there'd
me more
CPUs to be launched. And therefore allowed CPU0 isolation. That
changed.

I also learned that the "isolcpus" boot parameter got the label
"depreciated".
It seems "cpuset" should be used in the future. isolcpus still works.

Enjoy.
