Subject: [PATCH 5.19 021/207] drivers/base: Fix unsigned comparison to -1 in CPUMAP_FILE_MAX_BYTES

From: Phil Auld <pauld@...hat.com>

commit d7f06bdd6ee87fbefa05af5f57361d85e7715b11 upstream.

As PAGE_SIZE is unsigned long, -1 > PAGE_SIZE when NR_CPUS <= 3.
This leads to very large file sizes:

topology$ ls -l
total 0
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 18446744073709551615 Sep  5 11:59 core_cpus

-r--r--r-- 1 root root                 4096 Sep  5 11:59 package_cpus_list
-r--r--r-- 1 root root                 4096 Sep  5 10:58 physical_package_id
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 18446744073709551615 Sep  5 10:10 thread_siblings
-r--r--r-- 1 root root                 4096 Sep  5 11:59 thread_siblings_list

Adjust the inequality to catch the case when NR_CPUS is configured
to a small value.
