xen: avoid crash in disable_hotplug_cpu



The command 'xl vcpu-set 0 0', issued in dom0, will crash dom0:

Call Trace:

This happens because handle_vcpu_hotplug_event is called twice. In the
first iteration cpu_present is still true, in the second iteration
cpu_present is false which causes get_cpu_device to return NULL.
In case of cpu#0, cpu_online is apparently always true.

Fix this crash by checking if the cpu can be hotplugged, which is false
for a cpu that was just removed.

Also check if the cpu was actually offlined by device_remove, otherwise
leave the cpu_present state as it is.

Rearrange to code to do all work with device_hotplug_lock held.
