Yeah, it's simple, and none of the current ones are really critical.
But I think we're better off with:
        for (i = first_cpu(); i < NR_CPUS; i = next_cpu(i)) {

Which is simple enough not to need an iterator macro, and also has the
bonus of giving irq-balancing et al. an efficient, portable way of
looking for the "next" cpu.

Cheers!
Rusty.
