Hello,

I updated the Linux kernel to commit fe15c26ee26e ("Linux 6.3-rc1")
and found that when the system boots to systemd ranom initialization,
panic, as follows:

Analysis add_timer_on() found that the parameter cpu is equal to 64, which
feels strange, because qemu only specifies two CPUs, continues to look up,
and finds that the parameter cpu is obtained by
try_to_generate_entropy() -> cpumask_next().

Then use git bisect to find the bug, and find that it was introduced by
commit 596ff4a09b89 ("cpumask: re-introduce constant-sized cpumask optimizations"),
carefully analyzing the cpumask_next() modification record, I found that
nr_cpumask_bits modified to small_cpumask_bits, and when NR_CPUS <= BITS_PER_LONG,
small_cpumask_bits is a macro and before nr_cpumask_bits is a variable-sized.

look for find_next_bit() If no bits are set, returns @size, I seem to
understand the cause of the problem.

I fixed this bug by make `if (cpu == nr_cpumask_bits)` to `if (cpu >= nr_cpumask_bits)`

At the same time I think about this situation, maybe there are the same errors
elsewhere, check it, sure enough, there are, quite a few.

The patch "random:xxx" has been verified, it is valid, the other three fixes
have not been verified, because I do not have an environment, but they
principle are same, so also submitted at the same time, if someone helps to
verify, thanks you very much.

If there is anything error, please tell me, thanks.
