x86: add check for node passed to node_to_cpumask, v3
* When CONFIG_DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS is set, the node passed to node_to_cpumask and node_to_cpumask_ptr should be validated. If invalid, then a dump_stack is performed and a zero cpumask is returned. v2: Slightly different version to remove a compiler warning. v3: Redone to reflect moving setup.c -> setup_percpu.c Signed-off-by: Mike Travis <travis@sgi.com> Cc: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com> Cc: "akpm@linux-foundation.org" <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Yinghai Lu <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
