Remove countMaskInv caching in bench framework
We were saving a div by caching the inverse as a float, but this ended up requiring a int -> float -> int conversion, which takes almost as much time as the difference between float mul and div. There are lots of other more pressing issues with the bench framework which probably require simply removing the adaptive iteration count stuff anyway.
