smp/hotplug: Rewrite AP state machine core

There is currently no explicit state change on rollback. That is,
st->bringup, st->rollback and st->target are not consistent when doing
the rollback.

Rework the AP state handling to be more coherent. This does mean we
have to do a second AP kick-and-wait for rollback, but since rollback
is the slow path of a slowpath, this really should not matter.

Take this opportunity to simplify the AP thread function to only run a
single callback per invocation. This unifies the three single/up/down
modes is supports. The looping it used to do for up/down are achieved
by retaining should_run and relying on the main smpboot_thread_fn()
loop.

(I have most of a patch that does the same for the BP state handling,
but that's not critical and gets a little complicated because
CPUHP_BRINGUP_CPU does the AP handoff from a callback, which gets
recursive @st usage, I still have de-fugly that.)

[ tglx: Move cpuhp_down_callbacks() et al. into the HOTPLUG_CPU section to
  	avoid gcc complaining about unused functions. Make the HOTPLUG_CPU
  	one piece instead of having two consecutive ifdef sections of the
  	same type. ]
