Subject: [PATCH 1/2] x86: UV BAU Increase maximum CPUs per socket/hub

We have encountered hardware with 18 cores/socket that gives 36 CPUs/socket
with hyperthreading enabled. This exceeds the current MAX_CPUS_PER_SOCKET
causing a failure in get_cpu_topology. Increase MAX_CPUS_PER_SOCKET to 64
and MAX_CPUS_PER_UVHUB to 128.
