On uniprocessor builds, it is currently assumed that any cpumask will
contain the single CPU: cpu0. This assumption is used to provide
optimised implementations.

The current assumption also appears to be wrong, by ignoring the fact
that users can provide empty cpumask-s. This can result in bugs as
explained in [1].

This series introduces some basic tests, and updates the optimisations
for uniprocessor builds.

  - Place tests in lib/test_cpumask.c
  - Drop the modified UP code in favor of the generic SMP implementation
  - Update declaration of cpumask_next_wrap()
