docker - It is possible to pin dockerd and containerd to core 0 using taskset or systemd CPUAffinity=0

Question

I'm trying to see if I can pin dockerd and containerd to core 0 on a Linux server, leaving all the other cores for the containers (using cpuset). So I used this on my systemd unit:

[Service]
CPUAffinity=0

I noticed than the children processes also got pinned to core 0 (tasket manual explains this is the expected behavior):

grep -i cpu /proc/$PID/status

My questions are:

1. It is possible to pin just the parent processes but the children can run where they want by using cpuset
2. Is anybody out there doing this? My concern is that I want to let some sensitive process work uninterrupted, by tying interrupts and other processes to core 0

Thanks,
