[PATCH 7/9] cpumask: avoid cpumask games in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/speedstep-centrino.c

[Rusty Russell]

Impact: don't play with current's cpumask

It's generally a very bad idea to mug some process's cpumask: it could
legitimately and reasonably be changed by root, which could break us
(if done before our code) or them (if we restore the wrong value).

Use rdmsr_on_cpu and wrmsr_on_cpu instead.
