I think you need to check that max_smt_thread_num !=0,
like in the DT path. Otherwise on a platform with no SMT,
max_smt_thread_num = 0 and I hit:
kernel/cpu::cpu_smt_set_num_threads()
WARN_ON(!num_threads || (num_threads > max_threads));
->
if (max_smt_thread_num)
cpu_smt_set_num_threads(max_smt_thread_num, max_smt_thread_num);
