cpumask: fix CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y cpu hotunplug crash

Impact: Fix cpu offline when CONFIG_MAXSMP=y

Changeset bc9b83dd1f66402b870301c3c7117b9c1484abb4 "cpumask: convert
c1e_mask in arch/x86/kernel/process.c to cpumask_var_t" contained a
bug: c1e_mask is manipulated even if C1E isn't detected (and hence
not allocated).

This is simply fixed by checking for NULL (which gcc optimizes out
anyway of CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n, since it knows ce1_mask can never
be NULL).

In addition, fix a leak where select_idle_routine re-allocates
(and re-clears) c1e_mask on every cpu init.
