plus there are also the fixlets below.

Subject: [PATCH] cpumask: fixlets
[ from Mike ]
Here are the only changes I could find from Rusty's last patches that
apply to tip/cpus4096-v2.
* Fix NR_CPUS reference in arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spu_base.c
* modify arch/x86/Kconfig so CONFIG_NR_CPUS is always defined. Also it
does not prompt if MAXSMP is set.
* change include/linux/threads.h so CONFIG_NR_CPUS is defined for those
arch's that do not define it.
