cpumask: centralize cpu_online_map and cpu_possible_map
Impact: cleanup Each SMP arch defines these themselves. Move them to a central location. Twists: 1) Some archs (m32, parisc, s390) set possible_map to all 1, so we add a CONFIG_INIT_ALL_POSSIBLE for this rather than break them. 2) mips and sparc32 '#define cpu_possible_map phys_cpu_present_map'. Those archs simply have phys_cpu_present_map replaced everywhere. 3) Alpha defined cpu_possible_map to cpu_present_map; this is tricky so I just manipulate them both in sync. 4) IA64, cris and m32r have gratuitous 'extern cpumask_t cpu_possible_map' declarations.

+ Back when each arch used to define their own cpu_online_map and
+ cpu_possible_map, some of them chose to initialize cpu_possible_map
+ with all 1s, and others with all 0s. When they were centralised,
+ it was better to provide this option than to break all the archs
+ and have several arch maintainers persuing me down dark alleys.
