I worry what might happen if the device tree says 4 but there are only
2 CPUs. There should be a way to detect the number of CPUs gracefully
in each arch.

Can you add get_cpu_count() as a method to the UCLASS_CPU ops perhaps?
Then baytrail can use it.

mp_init() can make the get_cpu_count() call after finding the first
CPU, and we can remove num_cpus from struct mp_params.

To me that seams cleaner than creating a weak function.
