The "num" in num_possible_cpus() means a count, as in how many are
there.

It doesn't mean largest ID of members of set X, which is what you
are asking for.

Even worse, having num_online_cpus() and num_possible_cpus() count
from a different perspective is really confusing.

Usually when people want a per-cpu thing they allocate percpu
memory which hides all of these details, why don't you allocate
the map as dynamic per-cpu memory?

It will also do the NUMA node local allocations for you as well.
