x86/hyperv: Don't assume cpu_possible_mask is dense

Current code allocates the hv_vp_assist_page array with size
num_possible_cpus(). This code assumes cpu_possible_mask is dense,
which is not true in the general case per [1]. If cpu_possible_mask
is sparse, the array might be indexed by a value beyond the size of
the array.

However, the configurations that Hyper-V provides to guest VMs on x86
hardware, in combination with how x86 code assigns Linux CPU numbers,
*does* always produce a dense cpu_possible_mask. So the dense assumption
is not currently causing failures. But for robustness against future
changes in how cpu_possible_mask is populated, update the code to no
longer assume dense.

The correct approach is to allocate the array with size "nr_cpu_ids".
While this leaves unused array entries corresponding to holes in
cpu_possible_mask, the holes are assumed to be minimal and hence the
amount of memory wasted by unused entries is minimal.
