x86/smp: Fix __max_logical_packages value setup
Frank reported kernel panic when he disabled several cores in BIOS
via following option:
Core Disable Bitmap(Hex) [0]
with number 0xFFE, which leaves 16 CPUs in system (out of 48).
The kernel panic below goes along with following messages:
smpboot: Max logical packages: 2^M
smpboot: APIC(0) Converting physical 0 to logical package 0^M
smpboot: APIC(20) Converting physical 1 to logical package 1^M
smpboot: APIC(40) Package 2 exceeds logical package map^M
smpboot: CPU 8 APICId 40 disabled^M
smpboot: APIC(60) Package 3 exceeds logical package map^M
smpboot: CPU 12 APICId 60 disabled^M

The reason for the panic is wrong value of __max_logical_packages,
which lets logical_package_map uninitialized and the uncore code
relying on this map being properly initialized (maybe we should
add some safety checks there as well).
The __max_logical_packages is computed as:
DIV_ROUND_UP(total_cpus, ncpus);
- ncpus being number of cores
With above BIOS setup we get total_cpus == 16 which set
__max_logical_packages to 2 (ncpus is 12).
Once topology_update_package_map processes CPU with logical
pkg over 2 we display above messages and fail to initialize
the physical_to_logical_pkg map, which makes the uncore code
crash.
The fix is to remove logical_package_map bitmap completely
and keep and update the logical_packages number instead.
After we enumerate all the present CPUs, we check if the
enumerated logical packages count is within its computed
maximum from BIOS data.
If it's not the case, we set this maximum to the new enumerated
value and freeze any new addition of logical packages.
The freeze is because lot of init code like uncore/rapl/cqm
depends on having maximum logical package value set to allocate
their data, so we can't change it later on.
Prarit Bhargava tested the patch and confirms that it solves
the problem:

Orig kernel boot log:
[ 0.464981] smpboot: Max logical packages: 19

1. nr_cpus=8, should stop enumerating in package 0:
[ 0.533664] smpboot: APIC(0) Converting physical 0 to logical package 0
[ 0.539596] smpboot: Max logical packages: 19
2. max_cpus=8, should still enumerate all packages:
[ 0.526494] smpboot: APIC(0) Converting physical 0 to logical package 0
[ 0.532428] smpboot: APIC(40) Converting physical 1 to logical package 1

[ 0.544486] smpboot: APIC(c0) Converting physical 3 to logical package 3
[ 0.550524] smpboot: Max logical packages: 19
3. nr_cpus=49 ( 2 socket + 1 core on 3rd socket), should stop enumerating in
package 2:
[ 0.521378] smpboot: APIC(0) Converting physical 0 to logical package 0
[ 0.527314] smpboot: APIC(40) Converting physical 1 to logical package 1
[ 0.533345] smpboot: APIC(80) Converting physical 2 to logical package 2
[ 0.539368] smpboot: Max logical packages: 19
4. maxcpus=49, should still enumerate all packages:
[ 0.525591] smpboot: APIC(0) Converting physical 0 to logical package 0
[ 0.531525] smpboot: APIC(40) Converting physical 1 to logical package 1
[ 0.537547] smpboot: APIC(80) Converting physical 2 to logical package 2
[ 0.543579] smpboot: APIC(c0) Converting physical 3 to logical package 3
[ 0.549624] smpboot: Max logical packages: 19
5. kdump (nr_cpus=1) works as well.
