cpumask_set_cpu_local_first => cpumask_local_spread, lament
da91309e0a7e (cpumask: Utility function to set n'th cpu...) created a genuinely weird function. I never saw it before, it went through DaveM. (He only does this to make us other maintainers feel better about our own mistakes.) cpumask_set_cpu_local_first's purpose is say "I need to spread things across N online cpus, choose the ones on this numa node first"; you call it in a loop. It can fail. One of the two callers ignores this, the other aborts and fails the device open. It can fail in two ways: allocating the off-stack cpumask, or through a convoluted codepath which AFAICT can only occur if cpu_online_mask changes. Which shouldn't happen, because if cpu_online_mask can change while you call this, it could return a now-offline cpu anyway. It contains a nonsensical test "!cpumask_of_node(numa_node)". This was drawn to my attention by Geert, who said this causes a warning on Sparc. It sets a single bit in a cpumask instead of returning a cpu number, because that's what the callers want. It could be made more efficient by passing the previous cpu rather than an index, but that would be more invasive to the callers.
