So you're thinking that next_cpu(i) is something like

__ffs((~(unsigned)((1<<i)-1) & cpu_online_map)

plus an extra exception piece to take next_cpu(i) above NR_CPUS if we have no
remaining CPUs (because __ffs would be undefined)? It's the exception piece
that I don't see how to do really efficiently.
