<linux/sched.h> indirectly via cpumask.h path includes the ilog2.h header to calculate ilog2(TASK_REPORT_MAX). The following patches drops sched.h dependency on cpumask.h, and to have a successful build, the header has to be included explicitly. sched.h is a frequently included header, and it's better to keep the dependency list as small as possible. So, instead of including ilog2.h for a single BUILD_BUG_ON() check, the same check may be implemented by taking exponent of the other part of equation.
