This patch adds support for offlining CPUs via hotplug when using the CONFIG_MIPS_CPS SMP implementation. When a CPU is offlined one of 2 things will happen: - If the CPU is part of a core which implements the MT ASE and there is at least one other VPE online within that core then the VPE will be halted by settings its TCHalt bit. - Otherwise if supported the core will be powered down via the CPC. - Otherwise the CPU will hang by executing an infinite loop. Bringing CPUs back online is then a process of either clearing the appropriate VPEs TCHalt bit or powering up the appropriate core via the CPC. Throughout the process the struct core_boot_config vpe_mask field must be maintained such that mips_cps_boot_vpes will start & stop the correct VPEs.
