pri_to_cpu[1] isn't used since cpupri_set(..., newpri) is
never called with newpri = 99.

The valid RT priorities RT1..RT99 (p->rt_priority = [1..99]) map into
cpupri (idx of pri_to_cpu[]) = [2..100]

Current mapping:

p->rt_priority   p->prio   newpri   cpupri

                               -1       -1 (CPUPRI_INVALID)

                              100        0 (CPUPRI_NORMAL)

             1        98       98        2
           ...
            49        50       50       50
            50        49       49       51
           ...
            99         0        0      100

So cpupri = 1 isn't used.

Reduce the size of pri_to_cpu[] by 1 and adapt the cpupri
implementation accordingly. This will save a useless for loop with an
atomic_read in cpupri_find_fitness() calling __cpupri_find().

New mapping:

p->rt_priority   p->prio   newpri   cpupri

                               -1       -1 (CPUPRI_INVALID)

                              100        0 (CPUPRI_NORMAL)

             1        98       98        1
           ...
            49        50       50       49
            50        49       49       50
           ...
            99         0        0       99
