[PATCH v2 3/4] powerpc/pseries/cpuhp: delete add/remove_by_count code

The core DLPAR code supports two actions (add and remove) and three
subtypes of action:
* By DRC index: the action is attempted on a single specified resource.
This is the usual case for processors.
* By indexed count: the action is attempted on a range of resources
beginning at the specified index. This is implemented only by the memory
DLPAR code.
* By count: the lower layer (CPU or memory) is responsible for locating the
specified number of resources to which the action can be applied.
I cannot find any evidence of the "by count" subtype being used by drmgr or
qemu for processors. And when I try to exercise this code, the add case
does not work:
$ ppc64_cpu --smt ; nproc
SMT=8
24
$ printf "cpu remove count 2" > /sys/kernel/dlpar
$ nproc
8
$ printf "cpu add count 2" > /sys/kernel/dlpar
-bash: printf: write error: Invalid argument
$ dmesg | tail -2
pseries-hotplug-cpu: Failed to find enough CPUs (1 of 2) to add
dlpar: Could not handle DLPAR request "cpu add count 2"
$ nproc
8
$ drmgr -c cpu -a -q 2 # this uses the by-index method
Validating CPU DLPAR capability...yes.
CPU 1
CPU 17
$ nproc
24
This is because find_drc_info_cpus_to_add() does not increment drc_index
appropriately during its search.
This is not hard to fix. But the _by_count() functions also have the
property that they attempt to roll back all prior operations if the entire
request cannot be satisfied, even though the rollback itself can encounter
errors. It's not possible to provide transaction-like behavior at this
level, and it's undesirable to have code that can only pretend to do that.
Any users of these functions cannot know what the state of the system is in
the error case. And the error paths are, to my knowledge, impossible to
test without adding custom error injection code.
Summary:
* This code has not worked reliably since its introduction.
* There is no evidence that it is used.
* It contains questionable rollback behaviors in error paths which are
difficult to test.
So let's remove it.
