treewide: make "nr_cpu_ids" unsigned
First, number of CPUs can't be negative number. Second, different signnnedness leads to suboptimal code in the following cases: 1) kmalloc(nr_cpu_ids * sizeof(X)); "int" has to be sign extended to size_t. 2) while (loff_t *pos < nr_cpu_ids) MOVSXD is 1 byte longed than the same MOV. Other cases exist as well. Basically compiler is told that nr_cpu_ids can't be negative which can't be deduced if it is "int".
