but 'fuzz' is unsigned ! 

With a -1, unsigned or not, the 'first' cpu  becomes out of range for
the calculation below :

	/* Pick up a starting point CPU in the mask based on  fuzz */
	num = cpumask_weight(mask);
	first = fuzz % num;

	/* Locate it */
	cpu = cpumask_first(mask);
	for (i = 0; i < first && cpu < nr_cpu_ids; i++)
		cpu = cpumask_next(cpu, mask);

May be there is a better fix ? 


Also, I am not sure of :

	num = cpumask_weight(mask);

shouldn't we be using : 

	num = nr_cpu_ids;

In that case, 'first' would have been in the cpu range.

Cheers,
