Sam Ravnborg 98937707fe sparc64: Fix number of online CPUs
Nick Bowler reported:
    When using newer kernels on my Ultra 60 with dual 450MHz UltraSPARC-II
    CPUs, I noticed that only CPU 0 comes up, while older kernels (including
    4.7) are working fine with both CPUs.

      I bisected the failure to this commit:

      9b2f753ec2 is the first bad commit

      sparc64: Fix cpu_possible_mask if nr_cpus is set

    This is a small change that reverts very easily on top of 5.18: there is
    just one trivial conflict.  Once reverted, both CPUs work again.

    Maybe this is related to the fact that the CPUs on this system are
    numbered CPU0 and CPU2 (there is no CPU1)?

The current code that adjust cpu_possible based on nr_cpu_ids do not
take into account that CPU's may not come one after each other.
Move the chech to the function that setup the cpu_possible mask
so there is no need to adjust it later.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
