This primitive allows scheduling work to run on a particular set of
cpus described by a "struct cpumask".  This can be useful, for example,
if you have a per-cpu variable that requires code execution only if the
per-cpu variable has a certain value (for example, is a non-empty list).

v4: don't lose possible -ENOMEM in schedule_on_each_cpu()
(Note: no change to the mm/swap.c commit)

v3: split commit into two, one for workqueue and one for mm, though both
should probably be taken through -mm.
