When setting RTE_MAX_LCORES to the maximum value supported by ppc
hardware (1536), the lcores_autotest may timeout after 30 seconds
because the test takes nearly 60 seconds to complete. Set max_lcores to
a lower value because the maximum value is unlikely to be seen in any
production systems and to eliminate the quick test timeout error.

The compromise is documented, so the config exception is acceptable.
