[PATCH 2/5] kmod: Remove unecessary explicit wide CPU affinity setting

[Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>]

Khelper is affine to all CPUs. Now since it creates the
call_usermodehelper_exec_[a]sync() kernel threads, those inherit the
wide affinity.

As such explicitly forcing a wide affinity from those kernel threads
is like a no-op.

Just remove it. It's needless and it breaks CPU isolation users who
rely on workqueue affinity tuning.
