From: Kevin Hao haokexin@gmail.com Date: Thu, 30 Jul 2020 16:23:18 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] tracing/hwlat: Honor the tracing_cpumask

In calculation of the cpu mask for the hwlat kernel thread, the wrong cpu mask is used instead of the tracing_cpumask, this causes the tracing/tracing_cpumask useless for hwlat tracer. Fixes it.
