This looks very similar to my patch at
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/95080/ except I also updated the
comment. Also, the variable is nr_cpu_ids while the parameter
is nr_cpus=, the first instance in in the changelog is referring to
the variable while the second is the parameter.

Sorry I took me so long get that part of my series tested and posted.
