My previous review feedback included a request for a much better
description of the actual problem and how much of a performance gain we
are talking about along with a workoload description.

Besides that I do not think that the implementation is great either.
Relying on GFP_ATOMIC is very dubious. Is there any specific reason why
the data structure cannot pre reallocated? The comment for
cpumask_local_spread says that this is not the most efficient function
so users should better be prepared to not call it from hot paths AFAIU.
That would imply that an internal locking should be acceptable as well
so a preallocated data structure could be used.
