It's not clear mmap_cpu_mask__scnprintf() will call pr_debug()
and it also has some more work to prepare the buffer.
Maybe we can add an 'if (verbose)' block to inform it's all for
debug information and skip the unnecessary work.

I wonder if it's possible to fail on the first bitmap and
have a pointer to the old bitmap for the second one.
It might lead to double free then..

This will leak the last maps_spec as nr_spec was not increased.
