[PATCH] pseries/kexec: skip resetting CPUs added by firmware but not started by the kernel

[Shivang Upadhyay]

During DLPAR operations, The newly added CPUs will start in halted mode.
Kernel will then take sometime to initialize those cpu interally and
start them using "start-cpu" rtas call. However if a kexec-crash is
occurred in between this window (till the new cpu has been initialized),
The kexec nmi will try to reset all-other-cpus from the crashing cpu,
Which will lead to firmware starting the uninitialized cpus aswell. This
will lead to kdump kernel to hang during bringup.

Sample Log:
  [175993.028231][ T1502] NIP [00007fffb953f394] 0x7fffb953f394
  [175993.028314][ T1502] LR [00007fffb953f394] 0x7fffb953f394
  [175993.028390][ T1502] --- interrupt: 3000
  [    5.519483][    T1] Processor 0 is stuck.
  [   11.089481][    T1] Processor 1 is stuck.

To Fix this, Only issue the system-reset hcall to CPUs that have
actually been started by the kernel.
