Subject: [PATCH v1 1/1] docs: kernel-parameters: Refer to the correct bitmap function

The parser of the CPU lists is bitmap_parselist() that supports
special notations with the plain numbers. bitmap_parse() never
supported those and will fail in case one will try it.

Fixes: b18def121f07 ("bitmap_parse: Support 'all' semantics")
