The intended use case for CPU_FIRST() and CPU_NEXT() is to use it to do things 
like this:

        u_int hash[64];
        int i, j;

        j = CPU_FIRST();
        for (i = 0; i < 64; i++) {
                hash[i] = j;
                j = CPU_NEXT(j);
        }

If the auto-wrapping semantics of CPU_NEXT() is too odd, we could make it 
return NOCPU when it hits the end of the list instead perhaps and use some 
other macro to provide the current CPU_NEXT()-like behavior.
