Introduce a new API housekeeping_num_online_cpus(), that can be used to retrieve the number of online housekeeping CPUs based on the housekeeping flag passed by the caller. Some of the consumers for this API are the device drivers that were previously relying only on num_online_cpus() to determine the number of MSIX vectors to create. In real-time environments to minimize interruptions to isolated CPUs, all device-specific IRQ vectors are often moved to the housekeeping CPUs, having excess vectors could cause housekeeping CPU to run out of IRQ vectors.
