[PATCH v3] arm64: smp: Do not mark secondary CPUs possible under nosmp

[Pengjie Zhang]

Under nosmp (maxcpus=0), arm64 never brings up secondary CPUs.

smp_prepare_cpus() already treats this as a UP-mandated boot and returns
before marking secondary CPUs present. However, smp_init_cpus() may still
enumerate firmware-described secondary CPUs and mark them possible before
that point.

Avoid marking secondary CPUs possible when nosmp/maxcpus=0 is in effect,
so that cpu_possible_mask reflects the nosmp boot policy for this boot.
