Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 4/7] rcu: Don't allocate bootmem from rcu_init()

From: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@...cle.com>

When rcu_init() is called we already have slab working, allocating
bootmem at that point results in warnings and an allocation from
slab.  This commit therefore changes alloc_bootmem_cpumask_var() to
alloc_cpumask_var() in rcu_bootup_announce_oddness(), which is called
from rcu_init().
