Currently, cpu_online_cores_map returns a mask, which for every core with at least one online thread, has the bit for thread 0 of the core set to 1, and the bits for all other threads of the core set to 0. But thread 0 of the core itself may not be online always. In such cases, if the returned mask is used for IPI, then it'll cause IPIs to be skipped on cores where the first thread is offline, because the IPI code refuses to send IPIs to offline threads. Fix this by setting the bit of the first online thread in the core. This is done by fixing this in the underlying function cpu_thread_mask_to_cores. The result has the property that for all cores with online threads, there is one bit set in the returned map. And further, all bits that are set in the returned map correspond to online threads.
