When discovering the number of VPEs per core, smp_num_siblings will be
incorrect for kernels built without support for the MIPS MultiThreading
(MT) ASE running on systems which implement said ASE. This leads to
accesses to VPEs in secondary cores being performed incorrectly since
mips_cm_vp_id calculates the wrong ID to write to the local "other"
registers. Fix this by examining the number of VPEs in the core as
reported by the CM.
This patch presumes that the number of VPEs will be the same in each
core of the system. As this path only applies to systems with CM version
2.5 or lower, and this property is true of all such known systems, this
is likely to be fine but is described in a comment for good measure.
