[PATCH v4 0/9] lib/group_cpus: rework grp_spread_init_one() and make it O(1)

[Yury Norov]

Hi Andrew, Ming,

Now that we've got a couple more weeks, let's try to merge this series in
the upcoming merge window? In addition to addressing the v3 comments, in
v4 I added a few more patches that simplify the code for more by using
cleanup machinery.

Thanks,
	Yury

grp_spread_init_one() implementation is sub-optimal because it
traverses bitmaps from the beginning, instead of picking from the
previous iteration.

Fix it and use find_bit API where appropriate. While here, optimize
cpumasks allocation and drop unneeded cpumask_empty() call.
