[PATCH 11/35] x86: enable MAXSMP

From: Mike Travis
Date: Wed Oct 22 2008 - 22:12:24 EST


Set MAXSMP to enable CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK which moves cpumask's off
the stack (and in structs) when using cpumask_var_t.

This allows you to specify the maximum number of CPUs which this

This is purely to save memory - each supported CPU adds
approximately one kilobyte to the kernel image.
