[PATCH 15/19] kthread: Implement preferred affinity

Affining kthreads follow either of four existing different patterns: 1) Per-CPU kthreads must stay affine to a single CPU and never execute relevant code on any other CPU. This is currently handled by smpboot code which takes care of CPU-hotplug operations. 2) Kthreads that _have_ to be aff
