Subject: [PATCH v2 4/4] tools/perf: Fix perf bench numa testcase to check if CPU used to bind task is online

Perf numa bench test fails with error:

Testcase:
./perf bench numa mem -p 2 -t 1 -P 1024 -C 0,8 -M 1,0 -s 20 -zZq
--thp  1 --no-data_rand_walk

Failure snippet:
<<>>
 Running 'numa/mem' benchmark:

 # Running main, "perf bench numa numa-mem -p 2 -t 1 -P 1024 -C 0,8
-M 1,0 -s 20 -zZq --thp 1 --no-data_rand_walk"

perf: bench/numa.c:333: bind_to_cpumask: Assertion `!(ret)' failed.
<<>>

The Testcases uses CPU’s 0 and 8. In function "parse_setup_cpu_list",
There is check to see if cpu number is greater than max cpu’s possible
in the system ie via "if (bind_cpu_0 >= g->p.nr_cpus ||
bind_cpu_1 >= g->p.nr_cpus) {". But it could happen that system has
say 48 CPU’s, but only number of online CPU’s is 0-7. Other CPU’s
are offlined. Since "g->p.nr_cpus" is 48, so function will go ahead
and set bit for CPU 8 also in cpumask ( td->bind_cpumask).

bind_to_cpumask function is called to set affinity using
sched_setaffinity and the cpumask. Since the CPU8 is not present,
set affinity will fail here with EINVAL. Fix this issue by adding a
check to make sure that, CPU’s provided in the input argument values
are online before proceeding further and skip the test. For this,
include new helper function "is_cpu_online" in
"tools/perf/util/header.c".

Since "BIT(x)" definition will get included from header.h, remove
that from bench/numa.c
