sched: convert nohz_cpu_mask to cpumask_var_t.
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Impact: (future) size reduction for large NR_CPUS.

Dynamically allocating cpumasks (when CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK) saves
space for small nr_cpu_ids but big CONFIG_NR_CPUS.  cpumask_var_t
is just a struct cpumask for !CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK.
