[PATCH 7/8] cpumask: Provide a generic set of CPUMASK_ALLOC macros

[Mike Travis]

  * Provide a generic set of CPUMASK_ALLOC macros patterned after the
    SCHED_CPUMASK_ALLOC macros.  This is used where multiple cpumask_t
    variables are declared on the stack to reduce the amount of stack
    space required.

Based on linux-2.6.tip/master at the following commit:

    commit 0a91813e16ebd5c2d9b5c2acd5b7c91742112c4f
