I guess 0x3f is because "unsigned long long" is 64bits long, not sure if
we should hardcode this assumption. ULL can be >= 64bits.
RTE_LCORE_FOREACH(i) already makes sure "i" < RTE_MAX_CORE, and
RTE_MAX_CORE is 128 with current default config. So if user provides a
core value > 64, it is valid but will be ignored because of this check.
Another thing is "input_cores_mask" is also 64bits long, so even this
fixed application will not able to use this setting correctly.
I think it is good to
a) add flexible variable size set_bit/clear_bit/test_bit functions, like
Linux ones
b) make "input_cores_mask" an array that is large enough to keep
RTE_MAX_CORE
Although not sure if that is too much effort for this fix.
