sched: put back some stack hog changes that were undone in kernel/sched.c

Impact: prevents panic from stack overflow on numa-capable machines.

Some of the "removal of stack hogs" changes in kernel/sched.c by using
node_to_cpumask_ptr were undone by the early cpumask API updates, and
causes a panic due to stack overflow.  This patch undoes those changes
by using cpumask_of_node() which returns a 'const struct cpumask *'.

In addition, cpu_coregoup_map is replaced with cpu_coregroup_mask further
reducing stack usage.  (Both of these updates removed 9 FIXME's!)

Also:
   Pick up some remaining changes from the old 'cpumask_t' functions to
   the new 'struct cpumask *' functions.

   Optimize memory traffic by allocating each percpu local_cpu_mask on the
   same node as the referring cpu.
