generic: reduce stack pressure in sched_affinity
* Modify sched_affinity functions to pass cpumask_t variables by reference instead of by value. * Use new set_cpus_allowed_ptr function. Depends on: [sched-devel]: sched: add new set_cpus_allowed_ptr function Cc: Paul Jackson <pj@sgi.com> Cc: Cliff Wickman <cpw@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Travis <travis@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
