[PATCH 4/7] powerpc/smp: Optimize remove_cpu_from_masks

Currently while offlining a cpu, we iterate through all the cpus in the
DIE to clear sibling, l2_cache and smallcore maps. However if there are
more number of cores in a DIE, we end up spending more time iterating
through cpus which are completely unrelated.

Optimize this by only iterating through lesser but relevant cpumap.
If shared_cache is set, cpu_l2_cache_map should be relevant else
cpu_sibling_map would be relevant.
