[PATCH 2.6.26?] Raise the upper limit of NR_CPUS.

[tony@bakeyournoodle.com (Tony Breeds)]

As the pacas are statically initialised increasing NR_CPUS beyond 128,
means that any additional pacas will be empty  ... which is bad.

This patch adds the required functionality to fill in any excess pacas
at runtime.

I know it's late, but can this be considered for 2.6.26?
