powerpc: Warn about use of smt_snooze_delay
It's not done anything for a long time. Save the percpu variable, and emit a warning to remind users to not expect it to do anything. This uses pr_warn_once instead of pr_warn_ratelimit as testing 'ppc64_cpu --smt=off' on a 24 core / 4 SMT system showed the warning to be noisy, as the online/offline loop is slow.
