# - disables the Linux realtime throttling which ensures that realtime processes cannot starve the CPUS.
# - disables the Linux watchdog timer which is used to detect and recover from software faults.
# - disables the debugging feature for catching hardware hangings.
# - sets the default CPU affinity of 0b11 (3), which means that only CPU 0 and 1 handle interrupts.
# - moves all interrupts off cpus specified below starting at 2 and above.
