Kernel parameter 'nr_cpus' can be used to limit the maximum number

this to fadump by introducing 'fadump_nr_cpus' parameter that can
help in booting fadump kernel on a lower memory footprint.
Is there really no other way to do this? I really hate adding new, single use
only command line parameters.

Hmmm.. only alternative I can think about is enforcing a certain nr_cpu_ids
value whenever fadump is active, but that doesn't sound right..
Any suggestions?

Thanks
