[PATCH v3 42/45] powerpc: Use get/put_online_cpus_atomic() to avoid false-positive warning

[Srivatsa S. Bhat]

Bringing a secondary CPU online is a special case in which, accessing
the cpu_online_mask is safe, even though that task (which running on the
CPU coming online) is not the hotplug writer.

It is a little hard to teach this to the debugging checks under
CONFIG_DEBUG_HOTPLUG_CPU. But luckily powerpc is one of the few places
where the CPU coming online traverses the cpu_online_mask before fully
coming online. So wrap that part under get/put_online_cpus_atomic(), to
avoid false-positive warnings from the CPU hotplug debug code.
