Re: [PATCH] ARM64: Dynamically allocate cpumasks and increase supported CPUs to 512

Whitespace issues aside, I have applied the patch on top of kernel 6.1.55 and tested on both a dual-socket Ampere Altra machine with < 256 CPUs, and a dual-socket AmpereOne machine with > 256 CPUs. Works as expected, with all CPUs visible and functional.

Nit: the new default value should be in quotation marks, if we want to be pedantic
