This is looking for any other HK CPU within same policy for counters.
AFAIU, cpumask_nth_and() will return small_cpumask_bits/nr_cpu_ids
if the number of bits in both masks is different. Could you check
again if the current change is fine or needs something like below.
BTW, we have one CPU per policy.
cpumask_and(&mask, policy->cpus, housekeeping_cpumask(HK_TYPE_TICK));
retry:
....
cpumask_andnot(&mask, &mask, cpumask_of(cpu));
ref_cpu = cpumask_any(&mask);
Thank you,
