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

So what user actually cares about performance here enough to warrant
this?
