This looks to be BSP specific and could originate in configure.ac or a .h file.

It is likely that each BSP has an underlying hardware limit.

This is set initially based on the confdefs.h parameter CONFIGURE_SMP_MAXIMUM_PROCESSORS or something close to that (on phone). 

Ultimately the maximum CPUs for an application is the lower of those available or RTEMS is configured for.

A side-effect of building with --enable-smp.
