tracing: Add __bitmask() macro to trace events to cpumasks and other bitmasks

Being able to show a cpumask of events can be useful as some events
may affect only some CPUs. There is no standard way to record the
cpumask and converting it to a string is rather expensive during
the trace as traces happen in hotpaths. It would be better to record
the raw event mask and be able to parse it at print time.

The following macros were added for use with the TRACE_EVENT() macro:

  __bitmask()
  __assign_bitmask()
  __get_bitmask()

To test this, I added this to the sched_migrate_task event, which
looked like this:

TRACE_EVENT(sched_migrate_task,

	TP_PROTO(struct task_struct *p, int dest_cpu, const struct cpumask *cpus),

	TP_ARGS(p, dest_cpu, cpus),

	TP_STRUCT__entry(
		__array(	char,	comm,	TASK_COMM_LEN	)
		__field(	pid_t,	pid			)
		__field(	int,	prio			)
		__field(	int,	orig_cpu		)
		__field(	int,	dest_cpu		)
		__bitmask(	cpumask, num_possible_cpus()	)
	),

	TP_fast_assign(
		memcpy(__entry->comm, p->comm, TASK_COMM_LEN);
		__entry->pid		= p->pid;
		__entry->prio		= p->prio;
		__entry->orig_cpu	= task_cpu(p);
		__entry->dest_cpu	= dest_cpu;
		__assign_bitmask(cpumask, cpumask_bits(cpus), num_possible_cpus());
	),

	TP_printk("comm=%s pid=%d prio=%d orig_cpu=%d dest_cpu=%d cpumask=%s",
		  __entry->comm, __entry->pid, __entry->prio,
		  __entry->orig_cpu, __entry->dest_cpu,
		  __get_bitmask(cpumask))
);

With the output of:

        ksmtuned-3613  [003] d..2   485.220508: sched_migrate_task: comm=ksmtuned pid=3615 prio=120 orig_cpu=3 dest_cpu=2 cpumask=00000000,0000000f
