Alexey Budankov 8384a2600c perf record: Adapt affinity to machines with #CPUs > 1K
Use struct mmap_cpu_mask type for the tool's thread and mmap data
buffers to overcome current 1024 CPUs mask size limitation of cpu_set_t
type.

Currently glibc's cpu_set_t type has an internal mask size limit of 1024
CPUs.

Moving to the 'struct mmap_cpu_mask' type allows overcoming that limit.

The tools bitmap API is used to manipulate objects of 'struct mmap_cpu_mask'
type.

Committer notes:

To print the 'nbits' struct member we must use %zd, since it is a
size_t, this fixes the build in some toolchains/arches.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
