In sys/x86/acpica/madt.c file, function madt_add_cpu(), just remove
the block
	if (apic_id > MAX_APIC_ID) {
		printf("MADT: Ignoring local APIC ID %u (too high)\n",
		    apic_id);
		return;
	}
Best to do it on HEAD and not on 11.0.
If it helps, commit the change.

Also, for >= 256 CPUs, you might need to enable interrupt remapping
in the DMAR, use loader tunables
	hw.dmar.enable <= to enable DMAR
	hw.dmar.ir <= to enable remapping
	hw.dmar.dma <= to disable IOMMU if it interacts badly with your hw
