[PATCH] selftests: powerpc: Fix online CPU selection

Tue Jun 9 02:52:26 AEST 2020


On systems with large number of cpus, test fails trying to set
affinity by calling sched_setaffinity() with smaller size for
cpuset. This patch fixes it by making sure that the size of
allocated cpu set is dependent on the number of CPUs as reported
by get_nprocs().
