It just have to be called once, for one CPU from the mask. Otherwise for
the next CPUs you should see error:
"EM: exists for CPU%d"
It can happen that this print is not seen when the get_cpu_device(cpu)
failed, but that would lead to investigation why CPU devices are not
there yet.

Nicola: have you seen that print?
