x86: use possible_cpus=NUM to extend the possible cpus allowed

Impact: add new boot parameter

Use possible_cpus=NUM kernel parameter to extend the number of possible
cpus.

The ability to HOTPLUG ON cpus that are "possible" but not "present" is
dealt with in a later patch.

-possible_cpus=n		[s390 only] use this to set hotpluggable cpus.

 			This option sets possible_cpus bits in
 			cpu_possible_map. Thus keeping the numbers of bits set
 			constant even if the machine gets rebooted.
