x86: use possible_cpus=NUM to extend the possible cpus allowed
Impact: add new boot parameter Use possible_cpus=NUM kernel parameter to extend the number of possible cpus. The ability to HOTPLUG ON cpus that are "possible" but not "present" is dealt with in a later patch. Signed-off-by: Mike Travis <travis@sgi.com>

This option sets possible_cpus bits in
cpu_possible_map. Thus keeping the numbers of bits set
constant even if the machine gets rebooted.
