cpumask: limit visibility of FORCE_NR_CPUS
In current form, FORCE_NR_CPUS is visible to all users building their kernels, even not experts. It is also set in allmodconfig or allyesconfig, which is not a correct behavior. This patch fixes it.

Say Yes if you have NR_CPUS set to an actual number of possible
CPUs in your system, not to a default value. This forces the core
