padata_do_parallel currently returns -EINVAL if the callback CPU isn't in the callback cpumask. pcrypt tries to prevent this situation by keeping its own callback cpumask in sync with padata's and checks that the callback CPU it passes to padata is valid. Make padata handle this instead. padata_do_parallel now takes a pointer to the callback CPU and updates it for the caller if an alternate CPU is used. Overall behavior in terms of which callback CPUs are chosen stays the same. Prepares for removal of the padata cpumask notifier in pcrypt, which will fix a lockdep complaint about nested acquisition of the CPU hotplug lock later in the series.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
