Subject: sched: Fix crash in sched_init_numa()
From: Raghavendra K T <raghavendra.kt@linux•vnet.ibm.com>
commit 9c03ee147193645be4c186d3688232fa438c57c7 upstream.
The following PowerPC commit:
c118baf80256 ("arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c: do not allocate bootmem memory for non existing nodes")
avoids allocating bootmem memory for non existent nodes.
But when DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS=y is enabled, my powerNV system failed to boot
because in sched_init_numa(), cpumask_or() operation was done on
unallocated nodes.
Fix that by making cpumask_or() operation only on existing nodes.
[ Tested with and w/o DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS=y on x86 and PowerPC. ]
