Your patch is line-wrapped.

Also, the #ifdef is unnecessary. If CONFIG_SMP is off:

static const unsigned int setup_max_cpus = NR_CPUS;
#define num_online_cpus() 1U

The compiler will take care of optimizing out the the if() without the
explicit #ifdef.

Also, the +1 looks goofy to me. Doesn't this do the same thing (and
isn't it much easier to read)?

if (num_online_cpus() >= setup_max_cpus)
