You don't need CPUSETS for this small a system.
But setting it is harmless - for example at least

Can you try idle routine with hlt instead of mwait. There is no boot
option for this in x86_64, but you can change
arch/x86_64/kernel/process.c:select_idle_routine() not to enable mwait.

Let's see what such a patch looks like to see if it would be workable or
