[Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: bounds: support non-power-of-two CONFIG_NR_CPUS
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     bounds-support-non-power-of-two-config_nr_cpus.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

ilog2() rounds down, so for example when PowerPC 85xx sets CONFIG_NR_CPUS
to 24, we will only allocate 4 bits to store the number of CPUs instead of
5.  Use bits_per() instead, which rounds up.  Found by code inspection. 
The effect of this would probably be a misaccounting when doing NUMA
balancing, so to a user, it would only be a performance penalty.  The
effects may be more wide-spread; it's hard to tell.
