cpu/hotplug: Provide cpuhp_setup/remove_state[_nocalls]_cpuslocked()



Some call sites of cpuhp_setup/remove_state[_nocalls]() are within a
cpus_read locked region.

cpuhp_setup/remove_state[_nocalls]() call cpus_read_lock() as well, which
is possible in the current implementation but prevents converting the
hotplug locking to a percpu rwsem.

Provide locked versions of the interfaces to avoid nested calls to
cpus_read_lock().
