[PATCH] net: openvswitch: Use for_each_cpu() where appropriate

From: Yury Norov
Date: Mon Aug 18 2025 - 13:28:22 EST


From: "Yury Norov (NVIDIA)" <yury.norov@xxxxxxxxx>

Due to legacy reasons, openswitch code opencodes for_each_cpu() to make
sure that CPU0 is always considered.

Since commit c4b2bf6b4a35 ("openvswitch: Optimize operations for OvS
flow_stats."), the corresponding flow->cpu_used_mask is initialized
such that CPU0 is explicitly set.

So, switch the code to using plain for_each_cpu().
