Maybe it's already known and obvious, but... Remember that a node can be
allocated to only one partition. So, if you have the mixed nodes in bot
partitions and there's a GPU job running, a non-gpu job will find that
node marked as busy because it's allocated to another partition.
That's why we're drastically reducing the number of partitions we have
and will avoid shared nodes.
