x86/topology: Fix Intel HT disable

Browse source 
As per the comment in the code; due to BIOS it is sometimes impossible to know
if there actually are smp siblings until the machine is fully enumerated. So
we rather overestimate the number of possible packages.

/*
* Today neither Intel nor AMD support heterogenous systems. That
* might change in the future....
*
* While ideally we'd want '* smp_num_siblings' in the below @ncpus
* computation, this won't actually work since some Intel BIOSes
* report inconsistent HT data when they disable HT.
*
* In particular, they reduce the APIC-IDs to only include the cores,
* but leave the CPUID topology to say there are (2) siblings.
* This means we don't know how many threads there will be until
* after the APIC enumeration.
*
* By not including this we'll sometimes over-estimate the number of
* logical packages by the amount of !present siblings, but this is
* still better than MAX_LOCAL_APIC.
