Subject: [PATCH 00/12] cpumask: reduce stack pressure from local/passed cpumask variables v2
Modify usage of cpumask_t variables to use pointers as much as possible.
Changes are:
* Use an allocated array of cpumask_t's for cpumask_of_cpu() when
large NR_CPUS count is present. This removes 26168 bytes of stack
usage (see chart below), as well as reduces the code generated for
each usage.
* Modify set_cpus_allowed to pass a pointer to the "newly allowed"
cpumask. This removes 10792 bytes of stack usage but is an
ABI change.
* Add node_to_cpumask_ptr that returns pointer to cpumask for the
specified node. This removes 10256 bytes of stack usage.
* Modify build_sched_domains and related sub-functions to pass
pointers to cpumask temp variables. This consolidates stack
space that was spread over various functions.
* Remove large array from numa_initmem_init() [-8248 bytes].
* Optimize usages of {CPU,NODE}_MASK_{NONE,ALL} [-9408 bytes].
* Various other changes to reduce stacksize and silence checkpatch
warnings [-7672 bytes].
