cpumask subsystem uses nr_cpu_ids and nr_cpumask_bits interchangeably
despite that the variables have different meaning and purpose. It makes
some cpumask functions broken.
This series cleans that mess and adds new config FORCE_NR_CPUS that
allows to optimize cpumask subsystem if the number of CPUs is known
at compile-time.
After some testing I found build broken when SMP is on and NR_CPUS == 1.
This is addressed in a new patch #1, and in the following patch #2 that
now declares set_nr_cpu_ids in cpumask.h (was in smp.h).
Yury Norov (5):
smp: don't declare nr_cpu_ids if NR_CPUS == 1
smp: add set_nr_cpu_ids()
lib/cpumask: delete misleading comment
lib/cpumask: deprecate nr_cpumask_bits
lib/cpumask: add FORCE_NR_CPUS config option
