Hi Chenyu,

Thanks for your comments.

I do agree pre-calculating the cpumask can save cpu cycles, without
doing mask AND at each loop.

But I am not sure if it is safe to use the percpu 'select_rq_mask'
in update_sg_wakeup_stats(). Or we have to allocate a 'struct cpumask'.

I tested bellow patch. It can work and fix the bug.
If it is safe to use 'select_rq_mask' , I can submit V2 patch.
