Breno Leitao 76af546488 workqueue: validate cpumask_first() result in llc_populate_cpu_shard_id()
On uniprocessor (UP) configs such as nios2, NR_CPUS is 1, so
cpu_shard_id[] is a single-element array (int[1]). In
llc_populate_cpu_shard_id(), cpumask_first(sibling_cpus) returns an
unsigned int that the compiler cannot prove is always 0, triggering
a -Warray-bounds warning when the result is used to index
cpu_shard_id[]:

  kernel/workqueue.c:8321:55: warning: array subscript 1 is above
  array bounds of 'int[1]' [-Warray-bounds]
   8321 |  cpu_shard_id[c] = cpu_shard_id[cpumask_first(sibling_cpus)];
        |                    ~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is a false positive: sibling_cpus can never be empty here because
'c' itself is always set in it, so cpumask_first() will always return a
valid CPU. However, the compiler cannot prove this statically, and the
warning only manifests on UP configs where the array size is 1.

Add a bounds check with WARN_ON_ONCE to silence the warning, and store
the result in a local variable to make the code clearer and avoid calling
cpumask_first() twice.
