Vol2:

Bits 23-16: Maximum number of addressable IDs for logical processors in
this physical package.

To avoid data overflow, limit the max value written to EBX[23:16] to
255.

It's better explain what's issue when overflow happens.

the above comment doesn't explain why it needs below.

you can explain only bits [23:16] represents the maximum number of addressable IDs for logical processors in this physical package.

When thread_per_socket > 255, it will 1) overwrite bits[31:24] which is apic_id, 2) bits [23:16] gets truncated.
