Machines with more than 128 CPUs are becomming more common, the proper
fix here would be to dynamically allocate the array which we will do,
but in the meantime bump the limit to 256 to fix the problem on a 160
CPUs ppc64el system where this was reported.

Hi Paul,
Should I merge this temporary fix for liburcu tests, or should we go
for dynamic allocation of the array right away instead ?
Thanks,
Mathieu

Getting something running now is a good thing. I have occasional access
to a system that could use 512, though. (448 suffices, but powers of
two and all that.)
Longer term, I agree with dynamic allocation.
Thanx, Paul

Hi Michael,
After discussion with Paul, we can go for bumping the max nr cpu limit
of this test to 4096.
1536 would cover all the current hardware Paul E. McKenney is aware of.
4096 would cover all hardware he has ever received a bug report on.
Can you try it out and submit an updated patch ?
Thanks,
Mathieu
