This patch moves the initialisation of select_idle_mask to the top-level and reuses the same mask across both select_idle_core and select_idle_cpu. select_idle_smt() is left alone as the cost of checking one SMT sibling is marginal relative to calling __clear_cpumask_cpu() for every CPU visited by select_idle_core().

This patch scans once but it must do additional work to track that scanning so for shallow scans it's a loss and or deep scans, it's a win. The main downside to this patch is that cpumask manipulations are more complex because two cpumasks are involved. The alternative is that select_idle_core() would scan the full domain and always return a CPU which was previously considered. Alternatively, the depth of select_idle_core() could be limited. Similarly, select_idle_core() often scans when no idle core is available as test_idle_cores is very race-prone and maybe there is a better approach to determining if select_idle_core() is likely to succeed or not.
