[PATCH]: highest_possible_processor_id() has to be a macro
... otherwise, things like alpha and sparc64 break and break
badly. They define cpu_possible_map to something else in smp.h
*AFTER* having included cpumask.h.
If that puppy is a macro, expansion will happen at the actual
caller, when we'd already seen #define cpu_possible_map ... and we will
get the right thing used.
As an inline helper it will be tokenized before we get to that
define and that's it; no matter what we define later, it won't affect
anything. We get modules with dependency on cpu_possible_map instead
of the right symbol (phys_cpu_present_map in case of sparc64), or outright
link errors if they are built-in.
