Have you looked at what this does? :)

Can you measure the performance impact?

I would assume 'cpus' is less than NR_CPUS or possible cpus. We should
cap the outer loop based on 'cpus' length. The simplest fix is bail
when of_parse_phandle() fails. That will work unless you expect empty
entries in 'cpus':

cpus = <&cpu0>, <0>, <&cpu3>;

Otherwise, we'd need to use of_parse_phandle_with_fixed_args() instead
to distinguish empty entry vs. the end of the list. There is a
of_for_each_phandle() iterator which would avoid walking the 'cpus'
entry each time from the beginning, but it's a bit more complicated
since it handles arg cells.

This is the simple fix:
