Subject: [34-longterm 094/260] sched: Pre-compute cpumask_weight(sched_domain_span(sd))

From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@...llo.nl>

commit 669c55e9f99b90e46eaa0f98a67ec53d46dc969a upstream.

Dave reported that his large SPARC machines spend lots of time in
hweight64(), try and optimize some of those needless cpumask_weight()
invocations (esp. with the large offstack cpumasks these are very
expensive indeed).
