Re: [RFC] powerpc: respect how command line nr_cpus is set

We should utilize nr_cpus as the max # of CPUs that we can have present
instead of NR_CPUS.  This way we actually respect how nr_cpus is set on
the command line rather than ignoring it.

I think this is what we should be doing, but would like someone else to take
a look.

This looks very similar to my patch at
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/95080/ except I also updated the
comment. Also, the variable is nr_cpu_ids while the parameter
is nr_cpus=, the first instance in in the changelog is referring to
the variable while the second is the parameter.

Sorry I took me so long get that part of my series tested and posted.
