Commit78e5a33994("cpumask: fix checking valid cpu range") has started issuing warnings[*] when cpu indices equal to nr_cpu_ids - 1 are passed to cpumask_next* functions. seq_read_iter() and cpuinfo's start and next seq operations implement a pattern like n = cpumask_next(n - 1, mask); show(n); while (1) { ++n; n = cpumask_next(n - 1, mask); if (n >= nr_cpu_ids) break; show(n); } which will issue the warning when reading /proc/cpuinfo. Ensure no warning is generated by validating the cpu index before calling cpumask_next(). [*] Warnings will only appear with DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS enabled.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
