#1186544 — [PATCH] sched: Avoid sched domain rebuilding when hotplugging an isolate cpu

From: Xunlei Pang <pang.xunlei@linaro.org>

The sched domain is always rebuilt when hotplugging an isolate cpu,
as we can see in partition_sched_domains() with the NULL doms_new,
current sched domain is destroyed, then rebuilt. Worse still, the
rebuilding will reset all the parameters of the sched_domain. This
makes no sense and contradicts the isloate concept.

The patch avoids the rebuilding if the hotplug cpu is an isolate one.
