The 'offline' file in sysfs shows all offline CPUs, including those
that aren't present. User-space is expected to remove not-present CPUs
from this list to learn which CPUs could be brought online.

CPUs can be present but not-enabled. These CPUs can't be brought online
until the firmware policy changes, which comes with an ACPI notification
that will register the CPUs.

With only the offline and present files, user-space is unable to
determine which CPUs it can try to bring online. Add a new CPU mask
that shows this based on all the registered CPUs.
