percpu: fix unit_map[] verification in pcpu_setup_first_chunk()

pcpu_setup_first_chunk() incorrectly used NR_CPUS as the impossible
unit number while unit number can equal and go over NR_CPUS with
sparse unit map.  This triggers BUG_ON() spuriously on machines which
have non-power-of-two number of cpus.  Use UINT_MAX instead.
