Init all present cpus for deep states instead of "all possible" cpus.
Init fails if the possible cpu is gaurded. Resulting in making only
non-deep states available for cpuidle/hotplug.

Should this also head to stable? It means that for single threaded
workloads, if you guard out a CPU core you'll not get WoF, which means
that performance goes down when you wouldn't expect it to. Right?
