    Subject[RFC 1/5] rcu: Introduce primitives to iterate mask bits in an RCU leaf node
    Date
    There are some places inside RCU core, where we need to iterate all mask
    (->qsmask, ->expmask, etc) bits in a leaf node, in order to iterate all
    corresponding CPUs. The current code iterates all possible CPUs in this
    leaf node and then checks with the mask to see whether the bit is set.

    However, given the fact that most bits in cpu_possible_mask are set but
    rare bits in an RCU leaf node mask are set(in other words, ->qsmask and
    its friends are usually more sparse than cpu_possible_mask), it's better
    to iterate in the other way, that is iterating mask bits in a leaf node
    and then checking with cpu_possible(). By doing so, we can save several
    checks in the loop, moreover, that fast path checking(e.g. ->qsmask ==
    0) could then be consolidated into the loop logic.

    This patch introduce leaf_node_for_each_mask_bit() and
    leaf_node_for_each_mask_possible_cpu() to iterate mask bits in a more
    efficient way.
