cpu/hotplug: Keep enough storage space if SMP=n to avoid array out of bounds scribble

commit a7c734140aa36413944eef0f8c660e0e2256357d upstream.

Xiaolong Ye reported lock debug warnings triggered by the following commit:

  8de4a0066106 ("perf/x86: Convert the core to the hotplug state machine")

The bug is the following: the cpuhp_bp_states[] array is cut short when
CONFIG_SMP=n, but the dynamically registered callbacks are stored nevertheless
and happily scribble outside of the array bounds...

We need to store them in case that the state is unregistered so we can invoke
the teardown function. That's independent of CONFIG_SMP. Make sure the array
is large enough.
