nr_cpu_ids is unsigned int, but find_first_bit returns unsigned long (at
least on arm). Use the larger type for min_t to avoid larger-to-smaller
type assignments. This address 141 MISRA C 10.3 violations.

find_* are meant to be used by common code. So I think the first step is
to correct the return type so it is consistent across all architectures.
I don't have a strong opinion on whether they should all return
'unsigned long'.
Then we can discuss if the MISRA rule is still violated.

I find interesting you are saying this given that...

... cpumask_first() is return 'int'. So rather than fixing it, you seem
to have just moved the violation.

I’ve also found that find_first_bit returns:
- unsigned int on x86
- unsigned long on ppc
- unsigned long on arm64
- int on arm32 (seems that value is always >= 0
So maybe they can be all unsigned int, and cpumask_first can be as well unsigned int?

I am OK with that. Julien, Shawn do you agree? If so, I can make the
change to find_first_bit so that it returns unsigned int on all arches.
