numa: use LAST_CPUPID_SHIFT to calculate LAST_CPUPID_MASK
LAST_CPUPID_MASK is calculated using LAST_CPUPID_WIDTH. However LAST_CPUPID_WIDTH itself can be 0. (when LAST_CPUPID_NOT_IN_PAGE_FLAGS is set). In such a case LAST_CPUPID_MASK turns out to be 0. But with recent commit 1ae71d0319: (mm: numa: bugfix for LAST_CPUPID_NOT_IN_PAGE_FLAGS) if LAST_CPUPID_MASK is 0, page_cpupid_xchg_last() and page_cpupid_reset_last() causes page->_last_cpupid to be set to 0. This causes performance regression. Its almost as if numa_balancing is off. Fix LAST_CPUPID_MASK by using LAST_CPUPID_SHIFT instead of LAST_CPUPID_WIDTH. Some performance numbers and perf stats with and without the fix.
