Subject: [PATCH 3.2 010/107] MIPS: Fix sched_getaffinity with MT FPAFF enabled

3.2.72-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@...nwrt.org>

commit 1d62d737555e1378eb62a8bba26644f7d97139d2 upstream.

p->thread.user_cpus_allowed is zero-initialized and is only filled on
the first sched_setaffinity call.

To avoid adding overhead in the task initialization codepath, simply OR
the returned mask in sched_getaffinity with p->cpus_allowed.
