An important function for cpusets is cpuset_node_allowed(), which optimizes on
the fact if there's a single root CPU set, it must be trivially allowed. But
the check "nr_cpusets() <= 1" doesn't use the cpusets_enabled_key static key
the right way where static keys eliminate branching overhead with jump labels.
This patch converts it so that static key is used properly. It's also switched
to the new static key API and the checking functions are converted to return
bool instead of int. We also provide a new variant __cpuset_zone_allowed()
which expects that the static key check was already done and they key was
enabled. This is needed for get_page_from_freelist() where we want to also
avoid the relatively slower check when ALLOC_CPUSET is not set in alloc_flags.
The impact on the page allocator microbenchmark is less than expected but the
cleanup in itself is worthwhile.

Acked-by: Vl... ah, no, I actually wrote this one.
But since the cpuset maintainer acked [1] my earlier posting only after Mel
included it in this series, I think it's worth transferring it here:
