This is already resolved with a previous patch from Jacob Keller, see
the following commit in my tree:

commit f15ac286b0d111499e0fec4b50c8c870ad3b4573

    i40e: use cpumask_copy instead of direct assignment
    
    According to the header file cpumask.h, we shouldn't be directly
copying
    a cpumask_t, since its a bitmap and might not be copied correctly.
Lets
    use the provided cpumask_copy() function instead.
