The variable 'selected_cpu' is defined as unsigned int.
However in the cpumask_next() it is implicitly type conversed to
int.
It is universally accepted that the implicit type conversion is
terrible.
Also, having the good programming custom will set an example for
others.
Thus, it might be better to change the definition of 'cpu' from
unsigned int to int.
