workqueue: zero cpumask of wq_numa_possible_cpumask on init
When hot-adding and onlining CPU, kernel panic occurs, showing following call trace. BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000000000001d08 IP: [<ffffffff8114acfd>] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x9d/0xb10 PGD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP ...

All entries of wq_numa_possible_cpumask is allocated by alloc_cpumask_var_node(). And these entries are used without initializing. So these entries have wrong value. When hot-adding and onlining CPU, wq_update_unbound_numa() is called. wq_update_unbound_numa() calls alloc_unbound_pwq(). And alloc_unbound_pwq() calls get_unbound_pool(). In get_unbound_pool(), worker_pool->node is set as follow: 3592 /* if cpumask is contained inside a NUMA node, we belong to that node */ 3593 if (wq_numa_enabled) { 3594 for_each_node(node) { 3595 if (cpumask_subset(pool->attrs->cpumask, 3596 wq_numa_possible_cpumask[node])) { 3597 pool->node = node; 3598 break; 3599 } 3600 } 3601 } But wq_numa_possible_cpumask[node] does not have correct cpumask. So, wrong node is selected. As a result, kernel panic occurs. By this patch, all entries of wq_numa_possible_cpumask are allocated by zalloc_cpumask_var_node to initialize them. And the panic disappeared.
