[PATCHv5 2/3] powerpc, cpu: handling the special case when boot_cpuid greater than nr_cpus

For kexec -p, after boot_cpuid is mapping into the range of [0,
threads_per_core), then if nr_cpus is small, we will have the bitmap
[0,..., nr_cpus, ..., boot_cpuid, ...). This patch chooses cpus inside
the range of [boot_cpuid - nr_cpus +1, ..., boot_cpuid] to be online.
With this patch and the next, on a P9 machine with thread_per_core=4,
and set nr_cpus=2 for the crash kernel.
After
taskset -c 11 sh -c "echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger"
Then
kdump:/sys/devices/system/cpu# cat possible
2-3
kdump:/sys/devices/system/cpu# cat present
2-3
kdump:/sys/devices/system/cpu# cat online
2-3
