I'm ok with the idea but not fan of the implementation:

You don't need that "again" loop and "handling_bootdn" weird boolean.
Instead, start with cpu = 1 instead of cpu = 0, and rename it to
"next_cpu".
Then, before the thread loop, check if we are on the same core
as boot_cpuhwid:
if (same_core_as_boot_cpu(intserv)) {
cpu = 0;
} else if (next_cpu < nr_cpus_ids) {
cpu = next_cpu++;
} else {
of_node_put(dn);
break;
}
