Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] cpumask: Introduce possible_cpu_safe()

There have been two cases recently where we pass user a controlled "cpu"
to possible_cpus().  That's not allowed.  If it's invalid, it will
trigger a WARN_ONCE() and an out of bounds read which could result in an
Oops.

This patch introduces possible_cpu_safe() which first checks to see if
the cpu is valid, turns off speculation and then checks if the cpu is
possible.

v2: Use nr_cpumask_bits instead of NR_CPUS.
    Split cpumask_validate_cpu() into a separate function.

I still left cpumask_test_cpu_safe() return 0 for invalid cpus, instead
of returning -ERANGE I feel it's simpler to stay consistent with the
normal possible_cpu() function.
