Well, almost exactly a year ago lparcfg was changed to bool.  Do the
reasons for that change still stand?

    powerpc: Disallow lparcfg being a module
    
    The lparcfg code needs several things which are pretty arcane internal
    details and which we don't want to export, which means that lparcfg
    doesn't work when built as a module.  This makes it a bool instead of
    a tristate in the Kconfig so that users can't try to build it as a
    module.

Hmm, I don't think lparcfg needs to access vdso_data at all.

In pseries_lparcfg_data we have:

        lrdrp = get_property(rtas_node, "ibm,lrdr-capacity", NULL);

        if (lrdrp == NULL) {
                partition_potential_processors = vdso_data->processorCount;
        } else {
                partition_potential_processors = *(lrdrp + 4);
        }

        partition_active_processors = lparcfg_count_active_processors();

But if there's no ibm,lrdr-capacity property then the system doesn't
support adding processors, so partition_potential_processors should be
equal to partition_active_processors.
