Looks fine to me. One nit below.

We may also have problem if node == NUMA_NO_NODE, is it better to mention this
in the function comment or check it before we going on? Currently this function
is only used in cpumask_local_spread() and the caller has already checked it, but
considering this is an export function so somebody may use it directly.
I wondering whether we should put this block within the protection of rcu_read_lock()
for some issues like hotplug or not. Is it possible if @node become CPU-less subsequently?
