Subject[PATCH 1/4] cpuhog: implement cpuhog
Date
Implement a simplistic per-cpu maximum priority cpu hogging mechanism
named cpuhog. A callback can be scheduled to run on one or multiple
cpus with maximum priority monopolozing those cpus. This is primarily
to replace and unify RT workqueue usage in stop_machine and scheduler
migration_thread which currently is serving multiple purposes.

Four functions are provided - hog_one_cpu(), hog_one_cpu_nowait(),
hog_cpus() and try_hog_cpus().

This is to allow clean sharing of resources among stop_cpu and all the
migration thread users. One cpuhog thread per cpu is created which is
currently named "hog/CPU". This will eventually replace the migration
thread and take on its name.
