acpi: Fix broken error check in map_processor()

map_processor() checks the cpuid value returned by acpi_map_cpuid() for -1
but acpi_map_cpuid() returns -EINVAL in case of error.

As a consequence the error is ignored and the following access into percpu
data with that negative cpuid results in a boot crash.

This happens always when NR_CPUS/nr_cpu_ids is smaller than the number of
processors listed in the ACPI tables.

Use a proper error check for id < 0 so the function returns instead of
trying to map CPU#(-EINVAL).
