Hi David：
Yes, you're right, min_t() evaluates the arguments only once.
In the actual scenario, the number of cpu is far less than 65535. Therefore, the minimum value will not convert to zero.
Thanks for your advice, this patch will be withdrawn.

num_online_cpus() may call more than once when passing to min_t(), between calls, it may return different values, so move num_online_cpus() out of min_t().
Nope, wrong bug: min() (and friends) are careful to only evaluate their arguments once. The bug is using min_t() - especially with a small type.
If/when the number of cpu hits 65536 the (u16) cast will convert it to zero.
Looking at the code a lot of the local variables should be 'unsigned int' not 'u16. Just because the domain of a value is small doesn't mean you should use a small type (unless you are saving space in a structure).
