Subject[RFC][PATCH] CONFIG_NR_CPUS for 2.4.21
Hi all...

This adds support for defining max CPU number at compile time. It is safe
for old .configs, because it defaults to current fixed max values.

Could you consider for applying ?

TIA

+Maximum number of CPUs
+CONFIG_NR_CPUS
+ This allows you to specify the maximum number of CPUs which this
+ kernel will support. The maximum supported value is 32 for 32-bit
+ architectures and 64 for the 64-bits ones. The mimimum value which
+ makes sense is 2.
+
+ This is purely to save memory - each supported CPU adds
+ approximately eight kilobytes to the kernel image.
