[PATCH 1/3] percpu: stop the loop when a cpu belongs to a new group

From: Wei Yang
Date: Mon Oct 21 2013 - 04:58:32 EST


When a cpu belongs to a new group, there is no cpu has the same group id. This
means it can be assigned a new group id without checking with every others.

This patch does this optimiztion.
