It would work as
   #define CPUMAP_FILE_MAX_BYTES  (((NR_CPUS * 9)/32 > PAGE_SIZE) \
   	   			     ? (NR_CPUS * 9)/32 - 1 : PAGE_SIZE)

Since 4097 > PAGE_SIZE and then you'd get PAGE_SIZE anyway. That is we could just
leave the 1 out of the inequality completely. 

If I recall at least some of the parens are needed to make the compiler happy.

I can resend with the above if you want.

Phil
