Subject: [PATCH 1/2] perf: Fix failure to set cpumask when only one cpu

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

The buffer containing string used to set cpumask is overwritten by end of
string later in cpu_map__snprint_mask due to not enough memory space, when
there is only one cpu. And thus causes the following failure.

$ perf ftrace ls
failed to reset ftrace

This patch fixes the calculation of cpumask string size.
