So, this hunk is embarrasing. The goto is completely unnecessary and the
whole for_each_present_cpu() block can be inside an
"if (enabled_cpus) { ... }" block. A goto is just nasty.

That said, is the if even necessary? Will for_each_present_cpu() iterate
over anything if it is processing the first cpu? (I don't actually know
the answer here, I did a quick look but not enough to get an
authoritative answer).
