for_each_possible_cpu() with a cpu_online() + `thread' check possibly does
the job. But there is a tiny race: Say CPU5 is reported online but is
going down. And after fcoe_percpu_clean() saw that CPU5 is online it
decided to enqueue a packet. After dev_alloc_skb() returned a skb
that CPU is offline (or say the notifier destroyed the kthread). So we
would OOps because `thread' is NULL.
An alternative would be to lock the CPUs during our loop (so no CPU is
going away) and then we iterate over the online mask.
