[PATCH v3 0/6] perf: Replace MAX_NR_CPUS with dynamic alternatives

[Kyle Meyer]

The purpose of this patch series is to replace MAX_NR_CPUS with a dynamic value
throughout perf wherever possible using nr_cpus_online, the number of CPUs
online during a record session, and cpu__max_cpu, the possible number of CPUs as
defined in the sysfs. MAX_NR_CPUS is still used by DECLARE_BITMAP at compile
time, however, it's replaced elsewhere.

This patch series was tested using "perf record -a -g" on both an eight socket
(288 CPU) system and a single socket (36 CPU) system. Each system was then
rebooted single socket and eight socket before "perf report" was used to read
the perf.data out file. "perf report --header" was used to confirm that each
perf.data file had information on the correct number of CPUs.

Change since v1:
  Broke PATCH 2/2 into multiple patches.

Changes since v2:
  Replaced env->sibling_cores and env->sibling threads with a local pointer and
  refreshed perf/util/svghelper.
