Thanks, I was unsure about this. I understand the desire to not add dead code.
Yet, next-20250318 does now contain helpers for `cpumask.c` without
corresponding `cpumask.rs`

So, I will include this in v5 of the rebased series, but with BITOPS
API BINDINGS [RUST] in its own patch.
Thanks for bearing with me : )
