Subject: [PATCH rcu 3/5] refscale: Correct affinity check

The current affinity check works fine until there are more reader
processes than CPUs, at which point the affinity check is looking for
non-existent CPUs.  This commit therefore applies the same modulus to
the check as is present in the set_cpus_allowed_ptr() call.
