ARM: 7585/1: kernel: fix nr_cpu_ids check in DT logical map init
If a kernel is configured with a DT containing more /cpu nodes than nr_cpu_ids, the number of cpus must be capped in the DT parsing code. Current code carries out the check, but fails to cap the value and the check is executed after the cpu logical index is used, which can lead to memory corruption due to index overflow. This patch refactors the check against nr_cpu_ids and move it before any computed index is used in the parsing code.
