[PATCH 06/10] KVM: Fix hang on uniprocessor

[Avi Kivity <avi-atKUWr5tajBWk0Htik3J/w@public.gmane.org>]

From: Marko Kohtala <marko.kohtala-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>

first_cpu(cpus) returns the only CPU when NR_CPUS is 1 regardless of
the cpus mask. Therefore we avoid a kernel hang in
KVM_SET_MEMORY_REGION ioctl on uniprocessor by not entering the loop at
all.
