Hiding two nested loops together in one for_each_* macro leads to
unexpected behavior for the standard usage of 'break/continue'.

for_each_numa_hop_cpu(cpu, node) {
if (condition)
break; <== will terminate the inner loop only, but it's
invisible to the human developer/reviewer.
}

These bugs will not be easy to spot in code review.
