kbuild, 0day kernel build service, outputs the warning:

arch/x86/kernel/irq.c:333:1: warning: the frame size of 2056 bytes
is larger than 2048 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

because check_irq_vectors_for_cpu_disable() allocates two cpumasks on the
stack.   Fix this by moving the two cpumasks to a global file context.
