powerpc, hotplug: Avoid to touch non-existent cpumasks.



We observed a kernel oops when running a PPC guest with config NR_CPUS=4
and qemu option "-smp cores=1,threads=8":

The reason of this is that in __cpu_disable(), when we try to set the
cpu_sibling_mask or cpu_core_mask of the sibling CPUs of the disabled
one, we don't check whether the current configuration employs those
sibling CPUs(hw threads). And if a CPU is not employed by a
configuration, the percpu structures cpu_{sibling,core}_mask are not
allocated, therefore accessing those cpumasks will result in problems as
above.

This patch fixes this problem by adding an addition check on whether the
id is no less than nr_cpu_ids in the sibling CPU iteration code.
