cgroup/cpuset: Find furthest isolated ancestor for invalidated isolated partition

Commit 46b885416c ("cgroup/cpuset: Fix a missing isolated_cpus
update in update_cpumasks_hier()") searches for the closet partition
root ancestor to determine if the isolated CPUs in a to be invalidated
isolation partition should be removed from isolated_cpus or not.

As reported by sashiko, this method may not work when there is a deeply
nested isolated partition hierarchy. For instance, Consider a nested
hierarchy A0 -> A1 -> A2 -> A3 where all four are PRS_ISOLATED:

  A0: effective_xcpus = 0-4
  A1: effective_xcpus = 1-4
  A2: effective_xcpus = 2-4
  A3: effective_xcpus = 3-4

When A1 shrinks its exclusive_cpus from 1-4 to 1-2, A2 will update it
effective_xcpus to 2. A3 will find its closet partition root ancestor
A2 and decides that its effective_xcpus 3-4 should be removed from
isolated_cpus which is incorrect.

Address this corner case by adding a new isolated_cpus_release() helper
to replace the existing ancestor_partition() helper. This new helper
will search for the furthest isolated partition root ancestor to decide
if some or all of its isolated CPUs should be removed from isolated_cpus
and also perform the removal when appropriate.

The is_remote_partition() and is_local_partition() helpers are also
moved up so they can be used in earlier functions.

There are other pre-existing problems that will still prevent the
above test case to work correctly. These problems will be addressed in
subsequent patches.
