	maxcpus=	[SMP] Maximum number of processors that	an SMP kernel

			should make use of.

			Using "nosmp" or "maxcpus=0" will disable SMP

			entirely (the MPS table probe still happens, though).

			A command-line option of "maxcpus=<NUM>", where <NUM>

			is an integer greater than 0, limits the maximum number

			of CPUs activated in SMP mode to <NUM>.

			Using "maxcpus=1" on an SMP kernel is the trivial

			case of an SMP kernel with only one CPU.

			should make use of.  maxcpus=n : n >= 0 limits the

			kernel to using 'n' processors.  n=0 is a special case,

			it is equivalent to "nosmp", which also disables

			the IO APIC.



	max_addr=[KMG]	[KNL,BOOT,ia64] All physical memory greater than or

			equal to this physical address is ignored.
