No, this is not the relevant info. I was actually looking for the MADT ACPI
table and whether there are disabled entries like so:
[ 0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi-id[0x03] lapic-id[0x02] enabled)
[ 0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi-id[0x04] lapic-id[0x03] enabled)
[ 0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi-id[0x05] lapic-id[0x84] disabled)
[ 0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi-id[0x06] lapic-id[0x85] disabled)
because if there are, nr_cpu_ids will include those when you don't boot
with "possible_cpus=N".
Anyhow, you can read this for more info: http://www.pubbs.net/kernel/200912/64310/
