Intel contributed support which is in kernel versions 3.18 and up. Low priority tasks like the Baloo file indexer in KDE will always try to run on an E core.

You can also manually pin to cores in Linux and some platforms support manual management. When I'm traveling with my Pinebook pro I turn off the big cores which makes the battery last for days (when not watching video).
