x86: "nosmp" command line option should force the system into UP mode

Bits set in cpu_possible_mask prior to the execution of
prefill_possible_map() (i.e.  when parsing ACPI or MPS tables) would
prevent the SMP alternatives logic from switching to UP mode, plus
unnecessary setup of per-CPU data for CPUs that can never come online.

Additionally, without CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU disabled CPUs can never come
online, and hence setting cpu_possible_mask bits for them is again a
simple waste of resources.
