The 'perf bench epoll' testcase fails on systems with more than 1K CPUs.

Testcase: perf bench epoll all

Result snippet:
<<>>
Run summary [PID 106497]: 1399 threads monitoring on 64 file-descriptors for 8 secs.

perf: pthread_create: No such file or directory
<<>>

In epoll benchmarks (ctl, wait) pthread_create is invoked in do_threads
from respective bench_epoll_*  function. Though the logs shows direct
failure from pthread_create, the actual failure is from
"sched_setaffinity" returning EINVAL (invalid argument).

This happens because the default mask size in glibc is 1024. To overcome
this 1024 CPUs mask size limitation of cpu_set_t, change the mask size
using the CPU_*_S macros.

Patch addresses this by fixing all the epoll benchmarks to use CPU_ALLOC
to allocate cpumask, CPU_ALLOC_SIZE for size, and CPU_SET_S to set the
mask.
