Subject: [PATCH 2/2] x86: Increase MAXSMP CPU count to 8192

The MAXSMP option is intended to enable silly large numbers of CPUs for
testing purposes.  The current value of 4096 isn't very silly any longer
as there are actual machines that approach 6096 CPUs when taking HT into
account.  Increase the value to 8192 to account for this and short term
future increases.
