Currently the 'sched_smt_present' static key is enabled when at CPU bringup SMT topology is observed, but it is never disabled. However there is demand to also disable the key when the topology changes such that there is no SMT present anymore. Implement this by making the key count the number of cores that have SMT enabled. In particular, the SMT topology bits are set before interrrupts are enabled and similarly, are cleared after interrupts are disabled for the last time and the CPU dies.
