lib: Restrict cpumask_local_spread to houskeeping CPUs
The current implementation of cpumask_local_spread() does not respect the isolated CPUs, i.e., even if a CPU has been isolated for Real-Time task, it will return it to the caller for pinning of its IRQ threads. Having these unwanted IRQ threads on an isolated CPU adds up to a latency overhead. Restrict the CPUs that are returned for spreading IRQs only to the available housekeeping CPUs.
