+         Back when each arch used to define their own cpu_online_map and
+         cpu_possible_map, some of them chose to initialize cpu_possible_map
+         with all 1s, and others with all 0s.  When they were centralised,
+         it was better to provide this option than to break all the archs
+         and have several arch maintainers persuing me down dark alleys.
