x86/apic: Reduce cache line misses in __x2apic_send_IPI_mask()
Using per-cpu storage for @x86_cpu_to_logical_apicid is not optimal. Broadcast IPI will need at least one cache line per cpu to access this field. __x2apic_send_IPI_mask() is using standard bitmask operators. By converting x86_cpu_to_logical_apicid to an array, we divide by 16x number of needed cache lines, because we find 16 values per cache line. CPU prefetcher can kick nicely. Also move @cluster_masks to READ_MOSTLY section to avoid false sharing. Tested on a dual socket host with 256 cpus, cost for a full broadcast is now 11 usec instead of 33 usec.
