sched/arm64: Move fallback task cpumask to HK_TYPE_DOMAIN
When none of the allowed CPUs of a task are online, it gets migrated to the fallback cpumask which is all the non nohz_full CPUs. However just like nohz_full CPUs, domain isolated CPUs don't want to be disturbed by tasks that have lost their CPU affinities. And since nohz_full rely on domain isolation to work correctly, the housekeeping mask of domain isolated CPUs should always be a subset of the housekeeping mask of nohz_full CPUs (there can be CPUs that are domain isolated but not nohz_full, OTOH there shouldn't be nohz_full CPUs that are not domain isolated): HK_TYPE_DOMAIN & HK_TYPE_KERNEL_NOISE == HK_TYPE_DOMAIN Therefore use HK_TYPE_DOMAIN as the appropriate fallback target for tasks. Note that cpuset isolated partitions are not supported on those systems and may result in undefined behaviour.
