Hi!

If sched_getaffinity is called with cpusetsize smaller than sizeof
(cpu_set_t) (people shouldn't do that but they reportably do that),
sched_getaffinity may segfault (calling memset with > 2GB size).
Also, if ever is kernel configured for 1025+ CPUs, sched_getaffinity
would always fail even if the user passed buffer big enough
(as it would still call the syscall with 128 and just bzero the rest).

The following matches what pthread_getaffinity_np is doing.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sched_getaffinity.c: Include sys/param.h.
	(__sched_getaffinity_new): Don't crash if cpusetsize is smaller than
	sizeof (cpu_set_t).
