mm: Allocate the mm_cpumask (mm->cpu_bitmap[]) dynamically based on nr_cpu_ids



The mm_struct always contains a cpumask bitmap, regardless of
CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK. That means the first step can be to
simplify things, and simply have one bitmask at the end of the
mm_struct for the mm_cpumask.

This does necessitate moving everything else in mm_struct into
an anonymous sub-structure, which can be randomized when struct
randomization is enabled.

The second step is to determine the correct size for the
mm_struct slab object from the size of the mm_struct
(excluding the CPU bitmap) and the size the cpumask.

For init_mm we can simply allocate the maximum size this
kernel is compiled for, since we only have one init_mm
in the system, anyway.

Pointer magic by Mike Galbraith, to evade -Wstringop-overflow
getting confused by the dynamically sized array.
