On a uniprocessor build this causes a crash in acpi_processor_start():

	BUG_ON((pr->id >= NR_CPUS) || (pr->id < 0));

pr->id is 255.

I could bodge around this in various ways, but the semantics of cpu IDs in
there seem to be a bit opaque, and I suspect some more thought needs to go
into it all.

As well as uniprocessor testing ;)
