Nice change, thank you!

There is one issue with it on large systems. Please see the comments
near the end of this patch.

Thanx, Paul

The purpose here is to parallelize the callback invocation, which looks to
me to be lost given the change below. This parallelization is important
given that the Linux kernel runs on systems with thousands of CPUs.
Admittedly not often, but we nevertheless do need to make Linux run well
on such systems.

But you are right that the parallelization assumed that per-CPU data
existed for all CPUs from zero to the maximum-numbered CPU. Perhaps a
good fix would be to make cblist_init_generic() construct a dense array
containing the numbers of the possible CPUs, then index into that array
to fan out the parallization.
