The estimator kthreads' affinity are defined by sysctl overwritten
preferences and applied through a plain call to the scheduler's affinity
API.
However since the introduction of managed kthreads preferred affinity,
such a practice shortcuts the kthreads core code which eventually
overwrites the target to the default unbound affinity.
Fix this with using the appropriate kthread's API.
Fixes: d1a89197589c ("kthread: Default affine kthread to its preferred NUMA
node")
