With v4.5-rc5, EBB6800 is booting fine:

You shouldn't have CPU32 in that case, the numbering starts from zero.
Also the coremask is 32-bit.
I can reproduce your issue with CONFIG_NR_CPUS=64. Possibly this code
is incorrect for NR_CPUS bigger than 32:
/* The present CPUs get the lowest CPU numbers. */
cpus = 1;
for (id = 0; id < NR_CPUS; id++) {
if ((id != coreid) && (core_mask & (1 << id))) {
set_cpu_possible(cpus, true);
set_cpu_present(cpus, true);
What CONFIG_NR_CPUS did you use?
A.
