When architectures register CPUs, they indicate whether the CPU allows hotplugging; notably, x86 and ARM don't allow hotplugging CPU 0. Userspace can easily query the hotpluggability of a CPU via sysfs; however, the kernel has no convenient way of accessing that property in an architecture-independent way. While the kernel can simply try it and see, some code needs to distinguish between "hotplug failed" and "hotplug has no hope of working on this CPU"; for example, rcutorture's CPU hotplug tests want to avoid drowning out real hotplug failures with expected failures. Expose this property via a new cpu_is_hotpluggable function, so that the rest of the kernel can access it in an architecture-independent way.
