setup_per_cpu_areas() only setup __per_cpu_offset[] for each possible
cpu, but loongson_sysconf.nr_cpus can be greater than possible cpus
(due to reserved_cpus_mask). So in loongson3_ipi_interrupt(), percpu
access will touch the original varible in .data..percpu section which
has been freed. Without this patch, cpu-hotplug will cause memery
corruption.
