We have two requirements for a valid SMP configuration:
the product of "sockets * cores * threads" must represent all the
possible cpus, i.e., max_cpus, and then must include the initially
present cpus, i.e., smp_cpus.

So we only need to ensure 1) "sockets * cores * threads == maxcpus"
at first and then ensure 2) "maxcpus >= cpus". With a reasonable
order of the sanity check, we can simplify the error reporting code.
When reporting an error message we also report the exact value of
each topology member to make users easily see what's going on.
