Currently, the range and default value of NR_CPUS is too restrictive
for high-end RISC-V systems with large number of HARTs. The latest
QEMU virt machine supports upto 512 CPUs so the current NR_CPUS is
restrictive for QEMU as well. Other major architectures (such as
ARM64, x86_64, MIPS, etc) have a much higher range and default
value of NR_CPUS.
