Arrays of NR_CPUS elements are what it probably doesn't like?

Can it use the number of online CPUs instead of NR_CPUS?

I don't see how, given that variable length arrays are something which
should be avoided in the kernel?

I thought about a patch like the following (compile tested only). What
do you think?

	    net: dpaa: Allocate only for online CPUs in dpaa_set_coalesce
	    
	    Currently, dpaa_set_coalesce allocates a boolean for every possible CPU
	    (NR_CPUS). This approach is suboptimal and causes failures in COMPILE_TEST.
	    For reference, see:
	    https://lore.kernel.org/all/202406261920.l5pzM1rj-lkp@intel.com/ (local)
	    
	    Modify the allocation to consider only online CPUs instead of
	    NR_CPUs. This change reduces the function's memory footprint and resolves
	    the COMPILE_TEST issues.
