The code calculates the number of threads to use, then multiplies
it with the number of cores to get the number of logical CPUs.
If the product happens to be zero because the number of cores
could not be determined, then nr_cpu_ids is going to be used.

So the code is correct but with the parenthesis it is easier to
read. Applied & thanks.
