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 (6): 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 powerpc/64: don't refer nr_cpu_ids in asm code when it's undefined
Zheng Zucheng (1): config: Add FORCE_NR_CPUS to openeuler_defconfig
