MIPS: malta: Fix GIC interrupt offsets



The GIC interrupt offsets are calculated based on the value of NR_CPUS.
However, this is wrong because NR_CPUS may or may not contain the real
number of the actual cpus present in the system. We fix that by using
the 'nr_cpu_ids' variable which contains the real number of cpus in
the system. Previously, an MT core (eg with 8 VPEs) will fail to boot if
NR_CPUS was > 8 with the following errors:

This is now fixed and the Malta board can boot with any NR_CPUS value
which also helps supporting more processors in a single kernel binary.
