cpu/hotplug: Implement setup/removal interface



Implement function which allow to setup/remove hotplug state callbacks.

The default behaviour for setup is to call the startup function for this state
for (or on) all cpus which have a hotplug state >= the installed state.

The default behaviour for removal is to call the teardown function for this
state for (or on) all cpus which have a hotplug state >= the installed state.

This includes rollback to the previous state in case of failure.

A special state is CPUHP_ONLINE_DYN. Its for dynamically registering a hotplug
callback pair. This is for drivers which have no dependencies to avoid that we
need to allocate CPUHP states for each of them

For both setup and remove helper functions are provided, which prevent the
core to issue the callbacks. This simplifies the conversion of existing
hotplug notifiers.
