[PATCH v6 1/2] pseries: Add code to online/offline CPUs of a DLPAR node

From: Gautham R Shenoy <ego at in.ibm.com>

Currently the cpu-allocation/deallocation on pSeries is a
two step process from the Userspace.

- Set the indicators and update the device tree by writing to the sysfs
  tunable "probe" during allocation and "release" during deallocation.
- Online / Offline the CPUs of the allocated/would_be_deallocated node by
  writing to the sysfs tunable "online".

This patch adds kernel code to online/offline the CPUs soon_after/just_before
they have been allocated/would_be_deallocated. This way, the userspace tool
that performs DLPAR operations would only have to deal with one set of sysfs
tunables namely "probe" and release".
