x86: change maximum NR_CPUS to 4096 and MAX_NUMNODES to 512
* Change the range of NR_CPUS from 2-255 to 2-4096 and change the
range of MAX_NUMNODES (NODES_SHIFT) from 1-32768 to 1-512.
* Alter comment about how much each increment of NR_CPUS consumes.
(This was found by configuring for 256 cpus and then 512 cpus
and dividing the difference by 256.)

This allows you to specify the maximum number of CPUs which this

+ kernel will support. The maximum supported value is 4096 and the
minimum value which makes sense is 2.
This is purely to save memory - each supported CPU adds
- approximately eight kilobytes to the kernel image.
