First off, thank you for doing this. It is very useful :-) Currently if one wishes to run a single task on an isolated CPU with as little interference as possible, one needs to pass rcu_nocbs, isolcpus, nohz_full parameters and now kthread parameter, all pretty much with the same values I know some people won't like this, but can we perhaps fold all these into a single parameter, perhaps even the existing isolcpus?
