This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    Drivers: hv: vmbus: Use cpumask_var_t for on-stack cpu mask

to my char-misc git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git
in the char-misc-testing branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will be merged to the char-misc-next branch sometime soon,
after it passes testing, and the merge window is open.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

MIME-Version: 1.0

A cpumask structure on the stack can cause a warning with
CONFIG_NR_CPUS=8192 (e.g. Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04 use this):

drivers/hv//channel_mgmt.c: In function ‘init_vp_index’:
drivers/hv//channel_mgmt.c:702:1: warning: the frame size of 1032 bytes
  is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

Nowadays it looks most distros enable CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y, and
hence we can work around the warning by using cpumask_var_t.
