Calling them key and pivot (as in the caller), would make more sense.

What about

	const (?) struct cpumask ***masks = (...)pivot;

	= masks[-1];

Can k->cpu be negative? If no, we can rewrite above as

	k->w = 0;
	if (b == k->masks)
		return 0;

	k->w = cpumask_weight_and(k->cpus, prev_hop[k->node]);

You can drop NULL and 0 while using C99 assignments.

Strange indentation. I would rather see the split on parameters and
maybe '-' operator.

sizeof(*k.masks) is a bit shorter, right?

Also we may go with


	struct cpumask ***masks;
	struct __cmp_key k = { .cpus = cpus, .node = node, .cpu = cpu };

out_unlock: shows the intention more clearly, no?
