One more thing -- this whole cpu_xxxx_map->cpu_xxxx_mask issue only
affects s390, s390x and ppc64, correct?  The s390[x] architectures
unconditionally require "cpu_online_map" to exist in their
respective s390[x]_get_smp_cpus() functions.  And ppc64 requires
the existence of either cpu_present_map or cpu_online_map in
its ppc64_paca_init() function.  But the other architectures look
like they get along without them.
