Impact: cleanups, reduce stack usage

This patch prepares for the next patch.  When we convert
cpuset.cpus_allowed to cpumask_var_t, (trialcs = *cs) no longer works.

Another result of this patch is reducing stack usage of trialcs.
sizeof(*cs) can be as large as 148 bytes on x86_64, so it's really not
good to have it on stack.
