cpumask: zero extra bits in alloc_cpumask_var_node
Impact: extra safety checks during transition When CONFIG_CPUMASKS_OFFSTACK is set, the new cpumask_ operators only use bits up to nr_cpu_ids, not NR_CPUS. Using the old cpus_ operators on these masks can mean accessing undefined bits. After some discussion, Mike and I decided to err on the side of caution; we zero the "undefined" bits in alloc_cpumask_var_node() until all the old cpumask functions are removed.
