Add getters for the global cpumasks documented in
`include/linux/cpumask.h`, specifically:
- cpu_possible_mask
- cpu_online_mask
- cpu_enabled_mask
- cpu_present_mask
- cpu_active_mask

Not sure about this '&raw const' syntax, but I want to make sure that
all this getters provide non-modifiable references. To modify any of
those masks, one has to call a dedicated helper like set_cpu_possible().
Can you maybe explicitly mention it in the comments?

For `id: T`, the syntax `&raw const id` produces a `*const T` pointing
at `id` (the analogous syntax `&raw mut id` produces a `*mut T`).
All getters here provide const references (`&'static Self` as opposed to
`&'static mut Self`) which will cause the compiler to prevent usage of
any `Cpumask` methods with a `&mut self` reciever (i.e., methods that
change the `Cpumask`).
> Can you maybe explicitly mention it in the comments?
The compiler will prevent using these values to change the underlying
`__cpu_possible_mask` etc, so mentioning that these return values can't
be used for that purpose seems redundant to me.
It is possible someone could get the pointer out via `Cpumask::as_raw`,
and then do something bad with that pointer, but this isn't any
different than someone doing something bad with
`bindings::__cpu_possible_mask`.
