Asymmetric systems may not offer the same level of userspace ISA support across all CPUs, meaning that some applications cannot be executed by some CPUs. As a concrete example, upcoming arm64 big.LITTLE designs do not feature support for 32-bit applications on both clusters. Modify guarantee_online_cpus() to take task_cpu_possible_mask() into account when trying to find a suitable set of online CPUs for a given task. This will avoid passing an invalid mask to set_cpus_allowed_ptr() during ->attach() and will subsequently allow the cpuset hierarchy to be taken into account when forcefully overriding the affinity mask for a task which requires migration to a compatible CPU.
