Unfortunately, it currently defaults to the number of possible CPUs in
the system. I should probably move the default assignment to after SMP
is setup. Currently it happens in early boot before all the CPUs are
running. On boot up, the limit is set to NR_CPUS which should be much
higher than what the system has, but shouldn't matter during boot. But
after all the CPUs are up and running, it can lower it to online CPUs.

I think I'll go and make v3 of this patch.
