Ah thats right, I always need the tmp mask. Confused this with 
avoiding the cpumask_clear_cpu line in the code vs. using cpumask_any_but.

something like this just making it static then ?

 	static cpumask_t tmp;

 	cpumask_and(&tmp, cpu_online_mask, mask);
 	cpumask_clear_cpu(cpu, &tmp);
 	return cpumask_any(&tmp);

Thanks,
