Subject: cpumask: reduce cpumask allocation size for CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK.
I've had these sitting in my queue for almost 3 years, but since Thomas
and Linus converted mm_struct to a cpumask_var_t, it's gotten easier.
Refreshed them on top of -tip.
The aim is to allow 'struct cpumask' to be undefined (but declared) if
CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is set. This avoids assignment, pass-by-value,
etc, so we can finally safely allocate nr_cpu_ids bits instead of
NR_CPUS.
The last holdout is 'struct task_struct', and we use a similar
alloc-at-end style to mm_struct.
Of course, more testing is needed...
Thanks,
Rusty.

cpumask: prepare for reduced cpumask_allocation.
Thomas and Linus already made CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK use a cpumask
at the end of struct mm_struct, this just changes it into a bitmap
and allocates it using cpumask_size().
This means it will shrink when cpumask_size() is changed to reflect
nr_cpu_ids not NR_CPUS.

cpumask: make task_struct.cpus_allowed a cpumask_var_t
This turns it into a pointer for everyone. No change for those
already using the tsk_cpus_allowed() accessor; I've enhanced some of
the sched/ code to use that. For others, I just changed them
directly.
For CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y, we now allocate it off the end; it
would be better to avoid the indirection and use a dangling bitmap,
but I didn't want to alter the layout of task_struct and risk breaking
carefully balanced caches.
Even better would be to point to the fixed "one cpu" and "all cpus"
masks where possible, and make a copy when setting it to something
else. But you'd have to track down those naughty places which frob it
directly...

cpumask: select disabling obsolete cpumask functions on x86
It currently depends on CONFIG_BROKEN; change to be set by
CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK now it all compiles.
We also complete it: the header shouldn't refer to the deprected
CPU_MASK_LAST_WORD, and the deprecated implementations are removed.

cpumask: fix lg_lock/br_lock.
Use a cpumask_var_t instead of cpumask_t. We're doing plenty of
allocations here anyway, so it's not really an issue, and it sets a
good example.
(cpumask_t is obsolescent, as are the cpus_* functions).

cpumask: get rid of cpumask_t.
Very shortly, struct cpumask will be declared but undefined for
CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK, so use 'struct cpumask' rather than
the obsolescent 'cpumask_t'.

irq: remove sizeof(struct cpumask)
Very shortly, struct cpumask will be declared but undefined for
CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK, so sizeof() won't compile. This is a Good
Thing, since we want to use cpumask_size() here anyway.

cpumask: remove struct cpumask definition when CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y
We're about to change CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK so it only allocate
nr_cpu_ids bits for all cpumasks. We need to make sure that when
CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is set:
1) Noone uses the old bitmap ops, which use NR_CPUS bits (use cpumask_*)
2) Noone uses assignment of struct cpumask (use cpumask_copy)
3) Noone passes a struct cpumask (pass a pointer)
4) Noone declares them on the stack (use cpumask_var_t)
So we finally remove the definition of struct cpumask when
CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y. This means that these usages will hit a compile
error the moment that config option is turned on.
Note that it also means you can't declare a static cpumask. You
should avoid this anyway (use cpumask_var_t), but there's a
deliberately-ugly workaround for special cases, using DECLARE_BITMAP()
and to_cpumask().

cpumask: reduce cpumask_size
Now we're sure noone is using old cpumask operators, nor *cpumask, we can
allocate less bits safely. This reduces the memory usage of off-stack
cpumasks when CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y but we don't have NR_CPUS actual
cpus.
