Subject: [PATCH 4.19 258/639] xen, cpu_hotplug: Prevent an out of bounds access

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

[ Upstream commit 201676095dda7e5b31a5e1d116d10fc22985075e ]

The "cpu" variable comes from the sscanf() so Smatch marks it as
untrusted data.  We can't pass a higher value than "nr_cpu_ids" to
cpu_possible() or it results in an out of bounds access.
