Subject: [PATCH 4.9 46/96] xtensa: SMP: limit number of possible CPUs by NR_CPUS

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

[ Upstream commit 25384ce5f9530def39421597b1457d9462df6455 ]

This fixes the following warning at boot when the kernel is booted on a
board with more CPU cores than was configured in NR_CPUS:

  smp_init_cpus: Core Count = 8
  smp_init_cpus: Core Id = 0
  ------------[ cut here ]------------
