[PATCHv8 5/5] powerpc/setup: alloc extra paca_ptrs to hold boot_cpuid

[Pingfan Liu]

paca_ptrs should be large enough to hold the boot_cpuid, hence, its
lower boundary is set to the bigger one between boot_cpuid+1 and
nr_cpus.

On the other hand, some kernel component: -1. the timer assumes cpu0
online since the timer_list->flags subfield 'TIMER_CPUMASK' is zero if
not initialized to a proper present cpu.  -2. power9_idle_stop() assumes
the primary thread's paca is allocated.

Hence lift nr_cpu_ids from one to two to ensure cpu0 is onlined, if the
boot cpu is not cpu0.

Result:
When nr_cpus=1, taskset -c 14 bash -c 'echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger'
the kdump kernel brings up two cpus.
While when taskset -c 4 bash -c 'echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger',
the kdump kernel brings up one cpu.
