Ingo Molnar f4bb570511 sched/nohz: Remove unnecessarily complex error handling pattern from find_new_ilb()
find_new_ilb() returns nr_cpu_ids on failure - which is the usual
cpumask bitops return pattern, but is weird & unnecessary in this
context: not only is it a global variable, it it is a +1 out of
bounds CPU index and also has different signedness ...

Its only user, kick_ilb(), then checks the return against nr_cpu_ids
to decide to return. There's no other use.

So instead of this, use a standard -1 return on failure to find an
idle CPU, as the argument is signed already.
