tools/power turbostat: Increase CPU_SUBSET_MAXCPUS to 8192

Browse source

On systems with >= 1024 cpus (in my case 1152), turbostat fails with the error output:
	"turbostat: /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset.cpus.effective: cpu str malformat 0-1151"

A similar error appears with the use of turbostat --cpu when the inputted cpu
range contains a cpu number >= 1024:
	# turbostat -c 1100-1151
	"--cpu 1100-1151" malformed
	...

Both errors are caused by parse_cpu_str() reaching its limit of CPU_SUBSET_MAXCPUS.

It's a good idea to limit the maximum cpu number being parsed, but 1024 is too low.
For a small increase in compute and allocated memory, increasing CPU_SUBSET_MAXCPUS
brings support for parsing cpu numbers >= 1024.

Increase CPU_SUBSET_MAXCPUS to 8192, a common setting for CONFIG_NR_CPUS on x86_64.
