Subject[PATCH] x86: Issue a warning if number of present CPUs > maxcpus and CONFIG_HOTPLUG=n
Note that the check against i (value passed as maxcpus, but at least 1)
is repeated further down, including the warning, but since possible is
already clamped to max_cpus at that time, it is never printed. In fact,
for the non-hotplug case, the warning about exceeding maxcpus is only
ever printed if "possible_cpus" was also specified on the command line.

I strongly believe that such limitation was unintentional.

I also changed the message slightly -- the kernel parameter name is
maxcpus, not max_cpus.
