riscv: Raise default NR_CPUS for 64BIT to 256
SpacemiT has already produced a 80-core RVA23 RISC-V server [1], and going further back, the dual-socket SG2042-based Sophgo Pisces has 128 cores (although that had some issues achieving mainline support). Therefore, an NR_CPUS of 64 is not enough. Raise default NR_CPUS to 256 for 64BIT (when !RISCV_SBI_V01, since very old firmware can't support more than 64 cores). The number was picked as a power of two that is at least double the known max. I believe this should be the right balance between not wasting too much memory and not having to touch this too often. Ubuntu has already been shipping NR_CPUS=512 for riscv64. We have also been testing NR_CPUS=256 internally at ISCAS and found negligible performance impact and no ill effects.
