Tariq has pointed out that drivers allocating IRQ vectors would benefit
from having smarter NUMA-awareness - cpumask_local_spread() only knows
about the local node and everything outside is in the same bucket.
sched_domains_numa_masks is pretty much what we want to hand out (a cpumask
of CPUs reachable within a given distance budget), introduce
sched_numa_hop_mask() to export those cpumasks.

2.31.1
The recently introduced sched_numa_hop_mask() exposes cpumasks of CPUs
reachable within a given distance budget, but this means each successive
cpumask is a superset of the previous one.
Code wanting to allocate one item per CPU (e.g. IRQs) at increasing
distances would thus need to allocate a temporary cpumask to note which
CPUs have already been visited. This can be prevented by leveraging
for_each_cpu_andnot() - package all that logic into one ugl^D fancy macro.
