 * As a fallback to parsing the CPU mask in "/sys/devices/system/cpu/possible",
 * iterate on all the folders in "/sys/devices/system/cpu" that start with
 * "cpu" followed by an integer, keep the highest CPU id encountered during
 * this iteration and add 1 to get a number of CPUs.
 *
 * Then get the value from sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF) as a fallback and
 * return the highest one.
 *
 * On Linux, using the value from sysconf can be unreliable since the way it
 * counts CPUs varies between C libraries and even between versions of the same
 * library. If we used it directly, getcpu() could return a value greater than
 * this sysconf, in which case the arrays indexed by processor would overflow.
 *
 * As another example, the MUSL libc implementation of the _SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF
 * sysconf does not return the number of configured CPUs in the system but
 * relies on the cpu affinity mask of the current task.
 *
 * Returns 0 or less on error.
