[PATCH] ARC: [SMP] get CPUs mask from DT

From: Noam Camus <noamca at mellanox.com>

Today we use smp_init_cpus() to set cpu possible mask
and we use smp_prepare_cpus() to set cpu present mask.
For possible mask we use all CPUs at range [0-NR_CPUS] and
for present mask we use all CPUs at range [0-max_cpus]
which is actually the same as possible mask (no hutplug).

For platform like eznps we wish to have more configurable range then
being statically defined by NR_CPUS (actuall derived from CONFIG_NR_CPUS).
For this purpose we added two new entries at our device tree root level:
possible-cpus
present-cpus

The format of this new entries is same like for all similar kernel
parameters which provide cpu list (see Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt)
example of use would be (assume CONFIG_NR_CPUS=8):
present-cpus = "0-1,6-7";
possible-cpus = "0-7";

Now if we provide such list in our DT then we won't use the statically range.
In our example above only CPUs 0,1,6,7 will be up after boot.
