    xen/arm: Allow setting the number of CPUs to activate at runtime
    
    Introduce a command line parameter "maxcpus" on Arm to allow adjusting
    the number of CPUs to activate. Currently the limit is defined by the
    config option CONFIG_NR_CPUS. Such parameter already exists on x86.
    
    Define a parameter "maxcpus" and a corresponding static variable
    max_cpus in Arm smpboot.c. Modify function smp_get_max_cpus to take
    max_cpus as a limit and to return proper unsigned int instead of int.
    
    Take the opportunity to remove redundant variable cpus from start_xen
    function and to directly assign the return value from smp_get_max_cpus
    to nr_cpu_ids (global variable in Xen used to store the number of CPUs
    actually activated).
