Hi Uwe,

Thanks for your patch!

Apart from the Kconfig warning, this also
  1. Breaks pressing "ENTER" in "make oldconfig" to apply a sensible
     default value, just repeating the question ad infinitum instead
     (the default is 16),
  2. "make olddefconfig" sets it to literal NR_CPUS, which is invalid, too.

While this does fix the issues on m68k, I don't think this is the
right fix:
  - NR_CPUS depends on SMP on most architectures, so you do not get
     the "range is invalid" warning on non-SMP, but NR_CPUS is zero.
    Hence I managed to reproduce the two issues above (albeit 2 with
    CONFIG_EROFS_FS_ZIP_LZMA_DEFAULT_MAX_STREAMS=3D0) with a non-SMP
    ARM config.
  - Kconfig logic using NR_CPUS typically includes a check for SMP, too.

So I think EROFS_FS_ZIP_LZMA_DEFAULT_MAX_STREAMS should be fixed
instead.
