HK_TYPE_DOMAIN will soon integrate cpuset isolated partitions and
therefore be made modifiable at runtime. Synchronize against the cpumask
update using RCU.

The RCU locked section includes both the housekeeping CPU target
election for the PCI probe work and the work enqueue.

This way the housekeeping update side will simply need to flush the
pending related works after updating the housekeeping mask in order to
make sure that no PCI work ever executes on an isolated CPU. This part
will be handled in a subsequent patch.

Just FYI, Jinhui posted a series that touches this same code and might
need some coordination:

  https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260107175548.1792-1-guojinhui.liam@bytedance.com (local)

IIUC, Jinhui's series adds some more NUMA smarts in the driver core
sync probing path and removes corresponding NUMA code from the PCI
core probe path.

Hi Bjorn,

Thanks for pointing out the series.

I’ll resolve the conflicts and send a new patchset once this one is merged.

Best Regards,
Jinhui
