ARM: 6993/1: platsmp: Allow secondary cpu hotplug with maxcpus=1
If an ARM system has multiple cpus in the same socket and the kernel is booted with maxcpus=1, secondary cpus are possible but not present due to how platform_smp_prepare_cpus() is called. Since most typical ARM processors don't actually support physical hotplug, initialize the present map to be equal to the possible map in generic ARM SMP code. Also, always call platform_smp_prepare_cpus() as long as max_cpus is non-zero (0 means no SMP) to allow platform code to do any SMP setup. After applying this patch it's possible to boot an ARM system with maxcpus=1 on the command line and then hotplug in secondary cpus via sysfs. This is more in line with how x86 does things.
