[PATCH 0/6] Final cpumask conversion patches for 4096+ cpus

[Rusty Russell]

Finally, these 6 patches actually allocate short (nr_cpu_ids-bits) cpumasks
and nail down the lid so the compiler will find new abuses if they creep in.

For non-CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK:
   The only visible changes are that you have to use the accessors
   mm_cpumask() and tsk_cpumask.  They convert the bitmaps (moved to the end
   of those structs) to 'struct cpumask *'.

For CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y:
   We allocate the mm and task_struct bitmaps short (nr_cpu_ids, rather
   than the compile-time NR_CPUS).  A couple of patches get rid of the
   old-style cpus_ ops so noone uses them accidentally.  We don't define
   struct cpumask at all, which prevents accidental abuse.  Finally, we
   reduce cpumask_size() so our dynamically-allocated cpumasks are only
   nr_cpu_ids big.

Cheers,
Rusty.
