sched: convert struct sched_group/sched_domain cpumask_ts to variable bitmaps
Impact: (future) size reduction for large NR_CPUS.
We move the 'cpumask' member of sched_group to the end, so when we
kmalloc it we can do a minimal allocation: saves space for small
nr_cpu_ids but big CONFIG_NR_CPUS. Similar trick for 'span' in
sched_domain.
This isn't quite as good as converting to a cpumask_var_t, as some
sched_groups are actually static, but it's safer: we don't have to
figure out where to call alloc_cpumask_var/free_cpumask_var.
