clockevents: Warn if cpu_all_mask is used as cpumask Using cpu_all_mask in clockevents cpumask may result in issues while comparing multiple clockevent devices to choose the preferred one. On one of the platforms with 2 system (i.e. non per-CPU) timers with different ratings, having cpu_all_mask for one of the device resulted in a boot hang due to a endless loop in clockevents_notify_released() as both were clocksources were selected as preferred. In order to prevent such issues in the future, warn if any clockevent driver sets cpu_all_mask as it's cpumask and just override it to use cpu_possible_mask. All the existing occurrences of cpu_all_mask are already replaced with cpu_possible_mask.
