This looks like a sanity check. If so, it should go before the snippet
above, so that client code would behave consistently.

In (node == NUMA_NO_NODE && !hops) case you return online cpus. Here
you return NULL just to convert it to cpu_online_mask in the caller.
This looks inconsistent. So, together with the above comment, this
makes me feel that you'd do it like this:

 const struct cpumask *sched_numa_hop_mask(int node, int hops)
 {
	struct cpumask ***masks;

	if (node >= nr_node_ids || hops >= sched_domains_numa_levels)
        {
 #ifdef CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG
                pr_err(...);
 #endif
		return ERR_PTR(-EINVAL);
        }

	if (node == NUMA_NO_NODE && !hops)
		return cpu_online_mask; /* or NULL */

        masks = rcu_dereference(sched_domains_numa_masks);
	if (!masks)
		return cpu_online_mask; /* or NULL */

	return masks[hops][node];
 }
