What is the expected behavior if someone still tries to submit IO on isolated
CPUs?

BTW, I don't see any change in blk_mq_get_ctx()/blk_mq_map_queue() in this
patchset, that means one random hctx(or even NULL) may be used for submitting
IO from isolated CPUs, then there can be io hang risk during cpu hotplug, or
kernel panic when submitting bio.
