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?

Thanks,
Gilad
