Subject: [PATCH 2/2] perf: Fix writing to illegal memory in handling cpumap mask

From: He Zhe <zhe.he@...driver.com>

cpu_map__snprint_mask would write to illegal memory pointed by zalloc(0)
when there is only one cpu.

This patch fixes the calculation and adds sanity check against the input
parameters.
