sched: convert sys_sched_getaffinity() to cpumask_var_t.
Impact: stack usage reduction Dynamically allocating cpumasks (when CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK) saves space in the stack. cpumask_var_t is just a struct cpumask for !CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK. Some jiggling here to make sure we always exit at the bottom (so we hit the free_cpumask_var there). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
