Subject: htop scans /proc to determine how many running tasks exist. Since
 that operation is not possible to be conducted in an atomic fashion, task
 scheduling effects can lead to a count greater than the number of actual
 processors; this is more easily noticed on machines with several CPUs and
 under heavy workload. This patch simply adds an upper bound on cpuCount to
 guarantee consistent reports of the number of running tasks at any given
 time.
