Similarly to the online cpus, the cpu_active_mask is actively used
in the kernel. This patch adds a counter for active cpus, so that
users that call num_active_cpus() would know the result immediately,
instead of calling the bitmap_weight for the mask.

Who cares about num_active_cpus() ?

NAK, this should *never*ever* be used from a module.
