Subject: [PATCH] cpuset: sparse warnings in cpuset.c

No need to redeclare p, we have finished with it at this point,
so reuse it in the for loop.

kernel/cpuset.c:824:23: warning: symbol 'p' shadows an earlier one
kernel/cpuset.c:746:21: originally declared here
kernel/cpuset.c:1272:52: warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer
